Twelve months after establishing himself as dancehall’s brightest new star, Popcaan had a relatively quiet summer this year. But it looks like Fry Yiy is ready to make up any ground lost to Konshens and fellow Gaza graduate Tommy Lee Sparta, dropping two sharp-looking videos in a matter of three days. First up is “Food Haffi Run,” on ZJ Chrome’s Wild Bubble riddim, a darker, gangster tune with a noir-ish, graphic novel-inspired video to match.

Badmind is the worsest disease, according to Vybz Kartel and Russian, and who cures diseases? Doctors! Hence the cover art for Kartel and producer/artist Russian’s new single “The Cure Fi Badmind,” which depicts both men in hospital scrubs and surgical masks, ready to operate on what they say out-ranks AIDS, diabetes, herpes and syphilis as Jamaica’s greatest ill. (For our less yard-savvt readers, “badmind” basically translates to “hating,” specifically on someone more successful than you).
