Randy Valentine - Beautifilled (Official Video) | Review

.

---

I just got the name Randy Valentine when I browsed some reggae songs on Youtube and I was sure this is a singer I must listen to his voice right now. You probably have heard some of his songs and this is my first time to get him.

For me, listening to Beautifilled from Randy Valentine made me sad because you know the story of this song was about the life of him with his family. Randy thought that family is everything for his fighting to be a great singer. I think Randy must dedicate this song to them. You can watch the music video and you will understand how sad it is. Then you will be able to feel how life is too beautiful to spend with our family.

This is really a nice song to listen to while you are thinking to work harder to change your life for your family. Oh man, the lyrics are so meant to me because there have been some lessons I could learn from the words put by Randy Valentine in Beautifilled.

Through this review, I want to invite you to watch a video of Randy Valentine's new single Beautifilled.

As a reggae lover, I assumed that it would be a nice tunes reggae song with very good songwriting skills of Randy Valentine.

Who is Randy Valentine?

It would be easy to label Valentine a hardcore reggae artist with a revolutionary edge. However, Randy is not that easy to define; he will 'flip the script' and not only show a softer side with songs like "Poor Man's Loving" and "Does She" but write lyrics that will blaze his message into one's brain with the directness of an arrow, or so the troubled soul into meditation. Complex, yet seemingly simple. For him, music is a Bridge.

Ronald Junior Fritz AKA Randy Valentine is a singer, songwriter, and composer. He emigrated to the UK from Jamaica/Clarendon with his family. As a child grew up he was heavily influenced by his father's love for music, which was expressed mostly via a sound system that his father owned called SHINING STAR.

Yet again, Valentine takes the listener into another musical direction. Almost acoustic in style, the piano, and percussion, accompanied by a violin draw the listener in to concentrate on the captivating and compelling style of his lyrics. I thought to myself "Randy has evolved, the man is deep"! The bass comes right in the middle of the song - head-bopping time!

Growing up within a home that was always rich in music with the likes of Peter Tosh, Lucky Dube, Sam Cooke, and Tracey Chapman bounce off its walls, it is no wonder why he would then grow to become one of the UK's leading voices in modern Roots Reggae.

He started off his music career in 2005 as a local DJ, where he used to perform in clubs in and out of London which led to him working for two years on an online Radio Station SWITCH 106 where he went by the moniker DJ Kwes.

In 2008, he joined forces with friends Jae5 and Kevin 'Blemish' Ababio to form a London-based artist development and production team J.O.A.T.

At this point, RV started to develop and exercise his passion for composing instrumentals that varies in sounds and styles and even a greater likening for producing for other artists, Stormzy, J Hus, Konshens and Fuse ODG just to name a few.

In 2011 he released his first self composed single Sing My Blues Away ft. UK rapper Jedi. It wasn't long after performing at a string of prestigious Open Mic events in and around London the likes of 'ILUVLIVE and S4S' with guitarist friend David Wehimn, that in an effort to focus more on his potential career as an artist he met and joined forces with Swiss-based producer and Indie label owner Gary 'Riga' Burke of Hemp Higher Productions.

Randy Valentine's career continued to grow from strength to strength since the release of his debut mixtape "'Bring Back The Love' in 2012 where he over 13 tracks - all built upon Studio One Riddims, such as" Stalag Riddim "," Bobby Babylon Riddim "," Lecturer Riddim "and more ... Since then, it has been described by some to be a Reggae Classic.

My work aims to bring awareness of self-reliance in all areas of life. My inspiration comes from growing up in Jamaica where self-reliance from a young age was the norm and the benefits I experience from it no matter how tough, They have imprinted themselves in me forever.

My parents have been incredibly influential, my father always has the gift of music in me, always tells me to Carry On, a song I dedicated to him on Fulfilling my purpose, encouraging and inspiring others is what my future is about.

Randy is a man with much love for his family. He told everything about him on his official website that you can visit here.

And you can meet him on Facebook, Twitter, and listening to his Soundcloud.

Info of the song

I suggest you play this song when you want to leave the concrete jungle or the confines of an intense situation. When you can see the challenges life is bringing but "it feels so good to be alive, life's oh so beautiful". Leave it all behind and rise above it on the wave of Valentine's unique voice and soft harmonies.

Visually, the production is sharp and the quality shines through, it was a good idea to contrast the scenes of the city with the colorful greenery of the countryside.

Lyrics

I vision myself carrying on the traditions of my parents.
one specifically is the union they practice by balancing each other out. Persevering through life's obstacles together, growing and flowing together as a unit, as a family.
My brothers and my sisters, aunties and uncles and cousins, their unconditional love fuels my spirit. In this I find confidence.
Life is beautifilled.

Musics' like that you know
Beautiful outlet
It's a bridge
And its been kinda cold lately
I said its been kinda cold lately

Lone soldier I travel alone
And when it's quiet I tell myself that I'm deep in the zone
I write my thoughts as they want me phone
No money tryna get some of the honey from the cone
And I don't know if she hears it in me tone
Seh man a lion but she claims seh man a dog she won't give me no bone
Its alright ill just leave her alone and stay focused on building me home
Man, I'm just out here on the grind
Sometimes running like a vine
Hope I run into someone that's divine
Lord please give me a sign
In the mean time I am just writing Iines
hoping I find something they can sign
I don't know, but I'm trying
And if I do my best, then everything is bless
I just sit back and laugh at the pressures of the path
The most high protect me while I walk
Through the valley
Ooh la laaaa

And it feels so good to be alive
Life's oh so beautiful
I might just go for a ride life is so beautiful
So beautiful
Clear blue skies and Jah Jah by my side
Makes beautiful life
Oh so beautiful
Sweet sunshines makes me smile inside
And it makes life beautiful
Oh so beautiful
Beautiful
Beautiful

And yeah, its been kinda cold lately
So cold that I thought that I would go crazy
But the marijuana smoke helps my soul stay free
Heavy is the load but it won't break me
You don't speak French then don't say oui
Yeah, I'm still here with no babies
I don't want to go lord don't take me
But if I have to go, you know its all gravy
Coz I am the wind I am the wave
i am the fossils that's in the caves
I am the energy that saves
I am everything in and outside of the maze
Ill never age spirit can't be caged
Trust in the process everything's a phase
Ey, like Sundays with sun rays
Just keep on being amazing.

And it feels so god to be alive
Lifes oh so beautiful
I might just go for a ride lifespan's so beautiful
So beautiful
Clear blue skies and Jah Jah by my side
Makes beautiful life
Oh so beautiful
Sweet sunshines makes me smile inside
And it makes life beautiful
Oh so beautiful
Beautiful
Beautiful
