Mattafix Cools Down the Pace with Gregory Isaacs

Not much as sample as it is a cover. Although based in the UK, Mattafix has roots in the country where I came from so the culture was bound to be a part of their music.

Their new single, Cool Down the Pace is a relaxing reggae joint that many reggae heads will recognize immediately.



Of course if you don't recognize it, the original version of Cool Down the Pace was done by the legendary Gregory Isaacs on his classic 1982 offering, Night Nurse.

Shaggy meets the Delfonics

Amazing song by Shaggy as he gets in touch with his softer side (again). His first single off his ninth studio album is Bad Man (Don't Cry).



Bad Man borrows from the classic 1968 song La La La Means I Love You by Delfonics.



Wow. Just cant get enough of either.
