A family of young, talented people seem to be taking over. The Millien’s are definitely here to stay and as the group of super talented siblings make their presence felt with their music and the production work of young David Millien, heads continue to turn in their direction, prompting nothing by awe from everyone looking on.
On set during the shoot of Do For Do- Denice Millien.
Denice Millien has unleashed a brand new track called, ‘Do For Do’. It’s her second single- a fusion of reggae, R&B and even some dub step, and according to her big brother, David, it’s just a teaser of what’s to come. Judging from what we’ve heard however, we think it’s safe to say Denice is going to have the masses eating out of her hands. She isn’t an unfamiliar face to the entertainment arena, locally. The nineteen year old beauty has done back- up vocals for many of the country’s top billing acts, among them Shurwayne Winchester, Olatunji, Chucky and Squeezy Rankin. Her brother told ETCETERABUZZ that a conscious decision was made to keep Denice out of the limelight before the age of 18 and it was only then that she released her first single, ‘Stuck on You.’
In 2013, Denice Millien proved her worth, having assisted some of the bigger artistes of soca, backing up Denise Belfon and Destra Garcia throughout the Carnival season. She even co-wrote Belfon’s smash single, ‘Wining Queen’, proving, no doubt, that she’s got more sass than meets the eye! Her development as an artistes has been credited in part to Denith Mc Nicolls, known best as Denithy. Denithy created the artwork for the new single and is also responsible for the video that you’ll see for the song, which follows.
Denice is said to be working on her album at present so with this, her second released single, we can only assume that what’s yet to come will be the icing on a cake that’s already proving to be sweeter than we imagined.
Dancehall artiste Popcorn has released an album rooted in gratitude and grounded in real-life experiences, he says. The artiste says, “Nothing Without God ” showcases his evolution.
Originally completed and scheduled for release prior to the devastating impact of Hurricane Melissa, the artiste’s latest catalogue of work is created with a message of strength, faith, and restoration and now stands as a powerful reflection of resilience, one that may serve as a source of hope and inspiration for many in current times.
More than a collection of songs, ‘Nothing Without God’ hears Popcaan blend gratitude, reflection, and perseverance, offering both comfort and motivation to his fans around the world.
“This project comes from a real place — from loss, from learning, and from faith,” said Popcaan. “We’ve all been through so much, and I just want people to remember that no matter how rough it gets, God never leave us. He carry we through the storm every time.”
The 14-track album features collaborations that highlight unity, purpose, and inner peace. Lead singles “Immortal Life” and “Nothing Without God” set the tone celebrating divine protection and the power of gratitude, while songs like “Family First” (featuring Natebadz) and “Kick It Wid
A Timely Soundtrack for Healing and Hope
As the island of Jamaica rebuilds and communities unite to recover from the storm, Popcaan’s ‘Nothing Without God’ serves as a soundtrack for healing. It’s a testament to resilience and a reminder that with every test comes testimony, and through every storm comes new growth.
“It’s not just about me or music,” Popcaan explained. “It’s about the people, the country, and remembering that we’re still blessed. Jamaica strong, and God still deh yah.”
