Blakkwuman22 Music is working hard to put together a solid dancehall juggling with the soon to be released Life 101 Riddim. CEO Karamanti began working on the project a few weeks ago after receiving the beat from her friend Pynsche (the beat maker) who is based in West Africa. The first artist to record on the Life 101 Riddim is Karamanti’s friend, the dancehall governor, Lt. Stitchie.
Stitchie recorded a hard hitting track which lashes out at the hypocrisies going on in the church. While he was in studio finishing up the record, radio personality Judith Crawford (from RJR) showed up and was so impressed with the content of the song that she spoke about it. See video clip below.
Karamanti is featured on the new rhythm driven project from Rhome Records; Missing Piece Riddim. On it she recorded ‘Don’t Give Up,’ which is considered an inspirational cross over track.
LYRICS: “So many people will tell you ”no”, and you need to find something you believe in so hard that you just smile and tell them ”watch me”. Learn to take rejection as motivation to prove people wrong. Be unstoppable. Refuse to give up, no matter what. It’s the best skill you can ever learn.” Charlotte Eriksson

After several weeks of shooting, Team Karamanti is now ready to release the official video for her song ‘Fake Rasta’ which is on the Rock Island Riddim by Range Hill Records. Though the song is considered a serious one, the video shows a lighter side with popular actor Stanhype playing a very comical role as the ‘Fake Rasta.’
Stanhype, who has also starred in videos for Duane Stephenson and most recently, Konshens, does all the things that a Rasta is not suppose to do. All who were involved in the shoot and edit unanimously agreed that he played the part very well. Persons are encouraged to subscribe to Karamanti’s Youtube channel as the video will be shared there on Monday June 29, 2015: https://www.youtube.com/user/KaramantiTV
Dancehall artist Karamanti will be a special guest on English Pound Radio on Saturday, June 20th. She will be interviewed by DJ English at approximately 7:30 PM [Jamaica time]. The two will have a lot to discuss as the artist many refer to as ‘the most lyrical female in dancehall’ recently released a video with Nigerian Reggae/Dancehall artist Teddy Ziggy. She also just completed the video shoot for her song, ‘fake rasta,’ as well as being featured in the medley video for the Heights Riddim (which features Queen Ifrica, Fantan Mojah and others).
Additionally, Karamanti was asked to voice on the ‘Missing Piece Riddim’ by Rhome Records that will feature the likes of Teflon, Khago and other notable Jamaican artists. She was also invited by her friend Lt. Stitchie to record on his upcoming riddim, ‘Nuh Necessary’ which is being co-produced by Jammys. To top it off, Karamanti is working on her own, 101 Riddim, to be released on her label, Blakkwuman22 Music.
Karamanti is expected to also make mention of her upcoming trip to Canada this summer and her Euro tour in the fall. Persons may listen to English Pound Radio online at http://englishpoundradio.com/ and follow Karamanti on Facebook and twitter get updates on all her movements.
