Born Free Records Journey with Conrad Glaze

*With Gratitude:* "I started writing songs at the age of 12 or 13, but I didn't take music seriously until 30 years ago, in 1994, when I decided to set aside all distractions and focus on music for Jah. Over these three decades, I've produced and created music professionally. I'm now nearing the completion of my seventh album under my own label, Born Free Records, where I've had the privilege of owning the Masters and contributing to every facet of production. I played an intricate role in every facet of the creation for the music, the writing of text, meaning the words, the arrangements, the mixes, the mastering.... (MORE)

SEASON 4 WRAP UP WAS A BLAST! WE CROWNED ARTIST OF THE YEAR!

 


Season 4 has ended family. And it ended with a big SPLASH!  Though we started this season a little later than usual due to unforeseen circumstances, BOSS HIT LIST (Top 5 Tracks of the week) amassed a collection of  incredible tracks and artists all vying for the top spot here at SHYRICK,  


By December the  list of entrants who qualified for the final bingo were:  ABBY DALLAS,  ANTHONY JOHN, SKORPIOH, DUANE STEPHENSON, MARKENO, GMEDS(and JAYDAN), MEDISUN, KAHLIA,  JAH NICENESS(1000 PULLUPS), KENNY SMYTH, MIRACLE THOMAS, SISTER NANCY,  I-NOAH, and HEZERON.




But that was before the REDEMPTION Bingo in Dec, where all the artists who didn't qualify were given a second chance to enter the FINAL BINGO and win that crown. After the dust settled  we had a few more names to add to the list : BLACK SHERIF , KAHLIA and TONYA STEPHENS, SE SE FOSTER, SINGING D, TRILLA C, SANCHEZ, BUGLE ,




We had a total of 21 artist walk into the FINAL BINGO  with hopes of walking out the winner. DJ FATTA ICON set up five heats and the winners of the heats were to face off  and settle the question once and for all. Who is going to be  TOP ARTIST 2025 !


Family here are the tracks that walked into the final round after winning their heat:


 



 GMEDS & JAYDAN - DEVISTATED

(We are unable to locate a video for this track)





Just when we thought we were ready to start it all, dj FATTA ICON threw a huge last minute  twist  by asking  the station's business manager to toss in one last name out of the ones just eliminated through out the night as a last minute redemption.  JAH NICENESS was picked because it was his birthday the following day, so his aptly named track saw one final PULL UP!





Well family it took @30 minutes to work it down to the final three!  And here's the results:

TOP ARTIST 2025 - SeSe FOSTER
RUNNER UP -  JAH NICENESS
3rd PLACE - G-MEDS AND JAYDAN

Get used to these artists family because they are about to get spoiled 'round here with a ton of LIVE promotions as our TOP ARTISTS at SHYRICK DANCEHALL RADIO.

2024 WAS A HARD YEAR FOR ALL OF US AT SHYRICK, LISTENERS AND ALL...



This is the year we were forced to drop a 5 track SALUTE for three of our artist family members :  OC ROBERTS, SILKKEY D  and one of our AMBASSADOR artists MADI SIMMONS.  We knew these three gentlemen over the years as friends and family and they were all exceptionally talented, entertaining and uplifting people with their positive vibrations.  All three gentlemen had a distinctly different style which was loved by all whom they met, worked with and entertained.  Our loss is certainly heaven's gain for we all know they are singing and writing music  to make ready for us!  May JAH  bless us all !






We have covered OC ROBERTS, SILKKEY D  and MADI SIMMONS  numerous times over the years promoting their music with SHYRICK NEWS REEL and BOSSmagazine . Here is a collection of these posts which hold videos, music links, their story and much more. We have collected them here to pay tribute and for you who never knew these three, please take the time to do so. You won't regret it ! 


OC ROBERTS



Who can forget those deep rich vocals OC ROBERTS honed as lead singer and then down the line as a disc jockey for FM Radio stations.  Tap on this  NEWS REEL LINK and this BOSSmagazine LINK  to watch, listen and read about this fascinating Jamaican born USA seasoned Reggae artist. 



SILKKEY D




It is all in the name family. SILKKEY D  delivered the smooth notes that would make the ladies swoon.  It was his superpower! If you loved silky smooth lover's vibes SILKKEY  D delivered with cream on top !   Tap on this  NEWS REEL LINK and this BOSSmagazine LINK  to watch, listen and read about this fascinating Jamaican born USA seasoned Reggae artist. 



MADI SIMMONS




When you work with the artists over time, the  many conversations and the shared love for a special specific genre lends it's self easily to friendships and sometimes eventually a sense of an extended family bond.   MADI SIMMONS fostered this energy with each and every person he met.  Everyone was special to him. 

A few artists whose vibes have flown through  this station were elevated to AMBASSADOR  status because they often take the time to interact with SHYRICK NATION  at the station or while networking .  MADI SIMMONS took on the role with great zeal and we here will always love and appreciate him for that!
