Delroy "Junior" Reid treated Toronto fans to a free outdoor concert, as part of the Luminato Festival, on June 14th. It was a wicked show, Junior was riding classic riddims backed by a local band- with only one hour of practice they were well hot!! Highlights were an up tempo Golden Hen Riddim - Babylon Release The Chain- (boom tune!) a killa medley on the Intercom Riddim- with Barrington Levy's Black Rose, Dennis Brown's Revolution, finishing up with the World Jam Riddim- Ini Kamoze's World A Music - out in the streets they call it... and the crowd shouted MURDER, as they shut down the sound for the night. Junior left the audience wanting more as he let out the first line of Boom Shack-A-Lack, before exiting the stage. Yes Junior - nice one - be sure to come back soon!

Mr.Vegas Unleashes RED HOT SUMMER SCORCHER - "Mus Come A Road"

After last year's big tune Lean With It on the Taxi label's Darker Shade Of Black Riddim, dancehall's favorite sing jay has returned with another steamy single, Mus Come a Road. This new song, which has been boiling on the underground dancehall circuit, is sure to dash up the charts. Produced by Rellee of "Raging Bull" fame and penned by Clifford Smith AKA Mr. Vegas, Mus Come a Road will surely set the summer on fire.

When the pulsating beat drops for Mus Come a Road, a sense of nostalgia evokes, as the song is built on Barrington Levy's 1982 smash Prison Oval Rock. Vegas' millennium version of the cult classic thrives with a Barrington Levy sample, which is looped through out the song. The original cut evolved from dances in Spanish Town that were held near a prison. Barrington Levy, clearly Vegas' favorite singer, vividly described the whole era in his hit. Moreover, Vegas unleashes a modern day twist with Mus Come a Road.

On Mus Come a Road, Mr. Vegas' passionately croons of the injustice of criminal justice. "There are some people behind bars who have been charged for a crime that is not as bad as the people who are in jail for murder, and the murders sometimes get out before them," says Mr. Vegas earnestly. "This song is for the people who have experienced that."

The Mus Come a Road single is joined by an appealing music video, currently in rotation on numerous American and Caribbean television outlets including BET J, VH1 Soul, Tempo, RE TV and Hype TV to name a few. As Prison Oval Rock was a hardcore vintage record, they wanted to capture it's essence with a Harder They Come themed video -- adding to the rough, street vibe of the song. In the video, Mr. Vegas is wanted and "on the road."

The Mus Come a Road video was produced by Winston Mayhew, who boasts a number of top Reggae music videos to his credit including Busy Signal's "Nah Go A Jail" and "These Are The Days," Morgan Heritage's "Look Pon Di Gully Side," and Duane Stephenson's "August Town."

Mr. Vegas catapulted on to the Reggae dancehall scene over ten years ago with the break through hit Heads High. For over a decade, he has been incessantly entertaining fans with timeless hits. His latest album Hot It Up, distributed by Delicious Vinyl, has been embraced by his fans. Notably, Hot Wuk made the Billboard charts. Now, Mr. Vegas is positioned to score again with the sure-fire Mus Come a Road.
