No Surrender - Best Dancehall Dance Video of 2017?

NO SURRENDER OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO Production: Warrior Films Director: Dameon Gayle Producer: Kim Suree Location: Orange st, Kingston, Jamaica

The official music video for No Surrender was filmed on iconic Orange St in downtown Kingston, Jamaica. Orange St was once buzzing with Jamaica’s influential record shops and recording studios, such as Prince Buster’s infamous Record Shack, driving an outpouring of reggae, ska and rocksteady from the island.

Produced by Warrior Films and directed by Dameon Gayle, the video brings to life tough ragga vocals from reggae legends Sizzla, Capleton and Fantan Mojah, singing about life on the streets of Kingston over producer Monkey Marc’s classic heavy hip hop beat and driving bass lines. Starting with Capleton chanting down Babylon, Fantan Mojah welcomes the listener to ‘the streets of the tough life’, declaring ‘To survive in the streets, them ask how we do it? We tell them, No surrender, no retreat!” Sizzla voices a war-cry for the poor and oppressed in Jamaica, as he calls on both the young and old to stand up and 'make your life better’, encouraging his Jamaican community to stay positive, work hard and find a way out of poverty and sufferation.

The music video is a vibrant showcase of the Jamaican dancehall dance scene, featuring some of the most iconic Jamaican dancers and dynamic dancehall crews from across the island.

'Gallop and Wine' triggers dance craze

Dancehall artiste Talio is pleased with the overwhelming response in the streets to his latest song, 'Gallop and Wine', which has spawned its own dance craze.

However, he is urging party goers to "party responsibly" as a rash of incidents in recent months has left dancers experiencing concussions and healing broken bones.

"The song really ah tek off in the streets. Mi Instagram full of videos every day from all the dances from Kingston to Montego Bay. A cameraman known as Videoface sprained his hand after one of the girls dem jump pon him and a gallop with him. So I am just asking the fans to dance responsibly because this dance ah cause people to keep up all sort of madness in the dance," a laughing Talio said.

Recently, popular dancer, Marvin Di Beast, damaged his leg when he fell off a second storey building after a stunt, and in the past, there have been reports of a concussion during a 'sky daggering' incident out west.

Gallop and Wine was released on the High Digitz Recordz label. A music video for the project is in rotation on all local cable channels.

Talio's follow-up single, Gal Yu Hot, is on Rhythm 21 for Ireland Records and is also in rotation on mainstream Jamaican radio.

Talio, aka Major Slim, hails from Seaview Gardens where he is known for his witty wordplay. That led to him writing a few songs for the iconic Bounty Killer, also from Seaview Gardens.

He is pleasantly surprised that a dance song may be his first major hit.

"Jamaica is a place that loves new dance styles. Buju Banton had 'bogle' in the '90s. Elephant Man had 'signal the plane' and 'pon the river', which were both big hits in the US. So we Jamaicans like to have fun, so right now the girls dem a gallop and wine," he said.

He will be releasing a new compilation album from Marwan Records in the near future.

DANCING IS BACK IN THE DANCEHALL

With dance moves like ‘Syvah’, ‘Shampoo’ and ‘Kreech’ being done at every event, it is obvious that there is now a dance craze in dancehall.

And this return may have been triggered by Ding Dong’s son, Kezari.

“Him say to me, Daddy, him love fi see when mi dance, and mi should dance more. When him seh dat, it strike a chord in me. Mi tek it up pon mi initiative and seh mi ago bring back dancing to the forefront,” Ding Dong told THE STAR.

Hell-bent on coming back with a massive dance move and accompanying song, Ding Dong said he linked Ricky Blaze, who produced Syvah.

With the dance move, songs and music video ready, Ding Dong said he started a campaign in the United States in November last year. He said he later continued the promotion in Jamaica by going to events and giving the song to selectors.

“Now, the dance evolve into something totally different, it take over everything in Jamaica. Me and Ravers (Clavers) in the street every single night. We just deh pon a campaign wid it from last year, and it just really getting the break,” he said.

Based on how well ‘Syvah’ has been doing, Ding Dong said he wanted to make sure dancing remained at the forefront of dancehall.

“When I did ‘Syvah’, I didn’t want people to feel like is just one dance, so I said I am going to flood the market with dancing,” he said.

Now, Ding Dong says he also has another move called ‘Shampoo’, while Kreecha has done one called ‘Kreech’, with Bling Dawg recording a song for it. He said there is also ‘Duh Di Right Tiing’, that was done by Mundo Ravers, and an accompanying song of the same name from Elephant Man.

“I want anywhere Bogle deh, him just a smile and seh, you doing a good job. The door is open right now. We (dancers) have the attention of everybody. So as a dancer, you want to create a move weh everybody can do and everybody can enjoy,” Ding Dong said, adding that the public can learn new moves by following his Instagram page, @dingdongravers.

Good feeling

But Ding Dong is not the only one bit by the dancing bug, as Elephant Man is also pleased with the return of dancing.

“It give me a good feeling to see everybody dancing. With the dancehall, the more people dance, the happier people are. Dancing is back, and the party is back, so December is going to be a good look,” he said.

And Chi Ching Ching is also doing a new move he created called ‘Way Up Stay Up’, for which he has also done a song on Chimney Records’ ‘Happy Hour’ rhythm.

“Dancing is very important to dancehall from day one. Words can’t express how I feel about dancing rising back. From dancing rise back, Bogle rise back,” he told THE STAR.

Voicemail’s Kevin Blair is also pleased with this new dance craze, and his group has also added to the mix with by doing songs like Step, Shampoo, Balance, and Way Up Deh, which are all names of dance moves.

“The craze is back. The ladies are out killing it, and the men are back at it. There are many new dance moves, and it makes the dancehall nice,” he said.

In a previous interview with THE STAR, Bling Dawg also declared that this will be a very happy Christmas season.

“To me, it is a dancing December. The war thing nah cut it now, people just need something fi tek dem mind off of stress. A happy time,” he said.

SYVAH DANCE TAKING THE WORLD BY STORM

Every now and then in the world of dancehall, there's a dance that becomes an instant hit. In my opinion it requires a good song, a dance move that is catchy and a good video.
