Caribbean Lifestyle Media: Alliance Jamaica recently tried something a little different in a Jamaican Dancehall/Reggae industry which has seen very little girl groups on the scene. We were told that members
Sashe, Kerise and sisters Kuchi and Sheena, hail from some of the toughest parts of Kingston, are taking a no-nonsense approach to their music, the business and life itself.

Member Kuchi stated,  "We represent the new generation of females and our music reflects that. We're all about fun, independence and portraying a positive, powerful image for all the females out there, with plenty of eye candy for the guys too! We like to show our sexy side but in a tasteful way."

In regards to their name KGN 21, Sashe said, "Kingston's zip codes only go up to 20, but we have our eyes set on the rest of the world too, so we thought KGN 21 was an appropriate name."

Their debut single "Boom Boom," produced by Grammy-winning legends Sly & Robbie, announces their intentions in no uncertain terms. A catchy, poppy hook laced with hardcore Jamaican spice, "Boom Boom" got its worldwide premiere via US mainstream radio, courtesy of Nikki Z on her primetime morning slot on HOT 93.7 FM. Locally IRIE FM's DJ Sunshine and ZIP Jock Sparks have been showing the single a lot of love already. Sponsors of this post: Satellite Direct (Ad).

New York City's Moka Nightclub is playing no games when it comes to hosting the official album release party for dancehall star Serani. Making it a FREE event, Moka invites everyone to come celebrate this Friday, November 6, 2009 in Queens, New York.

Serani dropped his debut album No Games worldwide on Tuesday, October 27, 2009 on the Universal Republic imprint. The album has spurned two commercial hits, "No Games" and "She Loves Me," both which have made a decent showing on radio, with "No Games" becoming a Billboard mainstay.

First as a producer with production outfit DASECA, Serani has been responsible for a number of crossover hits long before he made the jump himself, including Sean Paul's "We Be Burnin'" and Tony Matterhorn's "Dutty Wine." In fact, the versatile and talented entertainer claims the majority of production credits on his own album, in stores now.

Moka opens its doors this summer and ever since has attracted the biggest names in Caribbean and Latin entertainment, and is the essence of chic nightlife. It's located at 130-35 91st Avenue between Atlantic and Jamaica avenues. Doors open at 9pm and dress code is in effect. Log on to www.mokanyc.com for directions and venue details. For media inquiries, please contact RHONA FOX, INC. at 212-300-3813 or publicity@rhonafoxinc.com.
