Timeka Marshall & Busy’s ‘Doggy Style’

Guyanese Songstress Timeka Marshall and Jamaican Dancehall Reggae artist Busy Signal are tearing up the charts with fresh song ‘Doggy Style’.

Collaborating with the artistes to produce this mega tune was Major Lazer, a musical project by DJ/Producer Diplo. This particular mastermind has worked with the likes of Beyonce, J. Cole and No Doubt among others.

With hot, saucy lyrics combined with the sounds of the So Shifty Mix, Timeka and Busy Signal are sure to create havoc whether on the street corners, the clubs or live concerts.

The song had hit YouTube last week and generated quite a buzz as several persons took to their Facebook pages, reposting the audio and as observed, ‘Doggy Style’ has been getting nothing but great feedback. Fans have even been asking about the release of a video but this is yet to be determined.

The two got together in 2009 and produced ‘Feel Fah’ which rocked the charts. It is anticipated that ‘Doggy Style’ will outdo the previous collaboration.

Marshall had been busy in the studio during 2012 with productions such as ‘Kisses Softly’, ‘Come Over’ featuring Konshens and more recently ‘Undercover Lover’. She has come a long way and worked with some of the biggest names in the industry such as Beenie Man, Kes the Band and Peetah Morgan.

Meanwhile, Busy Signal’s album, Reggae Music Again, which was released in April 2012, was placed at number seven on Welcome to the top 25 albums of 2012, a chart compiled by music pundits at BBC Music. According to a release from the station, the table is based on votes from “a wide selection of BBC Music critics, DJs, and presenters from Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 3, Radio 1Xtra, 6 Music, BBC Scotland and BBC Ulster”.

Deejay Busy Signal has also been nominated as a finalist in the category of ‘Best International Male Artist’ at the British Reggae Industry Awards (BRIA), alongside the likes of Damiam Marley, Popcaan and Alborosie, among others.
