Welcome to Sound System Fridays — Canada’s first and premiere online Reggae-Dancehall show featured the best in local and international Reggae and Dancehall Sound Systems, Dee-Jays and Artistes playing and performing live every Friday from the ReggaeMania studios at Brimley Rd. & Highway #401 in Scarborough. Picking up from where CKLN Friday Night ReggaeMania left off, Sound System Fridays was video-steamed and broadcast live every Fridays 9 PM – Midnight on U-Stream, iTunes and ReggaeMania.com for all to enjoy. Unfortunately U-Stream was sold and we did not back-up our videos – still hurts. But, you can see the Pics, listen -download the complete Audio archives, and read the show reviews.

This SSF show featured Toronto’s DJ FIRE KID STEENIE with Eyesus and Fadda Price performing live… Toronto’s Fire Kid Steenie graced the ReggaeManiaRadio studio this past Friday for: Friday Night
ReggaeMania – Sound System Fridays. He was joined by special guests Eyesus and Fadda Price who complemented his style – go hard and that he did! Steenie was thirty minutes into the show when I had to briefly remind him to slow down – he was soakin’ it like it was early in the mawnin’, at the peak of the dance. Steenie smiled and kept rinsing dubs and chunes – he never ran out! He dropped exclusive dubs from Mavado and I-Octane. This show will excite and inspire DJs and music critics alike as Fire Kid Steenie is without a doubt, Canada’s Top Dancehall DJ. Yuuup! People from the T-Dot already know this – we got our own ‘Tony Matterhorn’ right here. Enjoy the podcast!
This SSF show featured Jamaica’s DJ MALCOLM X with the beautiful Tonya P. performing live…Jamaica’s Malcolm X passed through the ReggaeManiaRadio studio for Sound System Fridays. He probably wishes he
could do it over again – his computer crashed minutes before the 9 PM show-start time, forcing him to use his second computer as backup which didn’t contain the same musical content that he had hoped to air. I found his mixing choppy, even his cuts too. I would say Malcolm X has some work to do when it comes to musical presentation, the music itself was sweet — not an issue. Tonya P did not disappoint! She worked the mic like a veteran and in my opinion, saved the show by bringing artical vibes to the ReggaeManiaRadio studio and the listeners and viewers at home. Enjoy! Big Up ICI Promo, Malcolm X and Tonya P!
This SSF show featured DJ BLAX DUN DA PLACE with live performing artists Fyahnese, Puppi Chapanore and iYawda… Toronto’s Blaxz Dun Da Place graced the ReggaeManiaRadio studio for Sound System Fridays. He
was joined by Puppi Chapanore, iYAWDA and Fyahnese (formerly Japanese) – who dropped by to pay tribute to his friend, the late Captain Barkey whom we lost during the week. Overall, the night was highly entertaining – good music, great performances and controversial speak (whose name didn’t Blaxz call). A special thanks to Blaxz who smashed the record formerly held by Rebel Tone and Fire Kid Steenie for most overall viewers during Sound System Fridays. Steenie still holds the record for the steadiest viewership though. Those that tuned in right at 9 PM right through until Midnight. Enjoy the vibes!
This SSF show featured DJ Hammer and his MAGNUM FORCE Sound with live performing artists Younique and Jeffrey Judah… Tonight featured Magnum Force Sound with Selector Hammer at the controls (Dino, his
partner, was working another gig) and special guests Younique (formerly Singer Madoo) alongside Jeffrey Judah. The night was filled with nuff vibes. Hammer admitted he’s not really into the “mixing thing” or the “computer thing”. So far, on Sound System Fridays, he’s been the only DJ juggling CD’s instead of using a laptop with digital music software (I’ve got 1200’s here should any DJ want to use them. Lol!). He’s a party rocker and an experienced clash selector. As time went on, he started to get into the vibe (he was pretty laid back at the beginning of the show as you’ll see) and when the show was over, he didn’t want to stop. He had just warmed up.
Big Up the artists! – Jeffrey Judah brought real vibes with his DJ and performance skills – this combo. makes for a promising future. Younique (formerly Singer Madoo) and I have a lot of history together – we go way back to the golden years of Toronto’s Dancehall Scene (when shows were kept at the Concert Hall, Hungarian Hall, Party Centre and the like). When I entered the scene after leaving Hip-hop, Madoo was already there and a star. It was a pleasure to reunite with him. I thanked Hammer for bringing Younique in as one of his special guests, I had lost track of this very talented artist who still resides here in the T-dot. Enjoy the podcast!
