Mad Cobra — Flex

Mad Cobra - The Best Of (DOWNLOAD) - Chinchilla Choons



Introduction:

Born Ewart Everton Brown on 31 March 1968 in Kingston, Jamaica, Mad Cobra is one of the most important and historically significant dancehall deejays of the early 1990s — the first reggae artist to top the Billboard rap singles chart and the artist who introduced a raw, gangsta-influenced lyrical style into Jamaican music while simultaneously proving that dancehall could conquer the mainstream American market. His 1992 Columbia Records single "Flex" — conceived on an airplane, recorded at Penthouse studio, produced by Sly Dunbar and Clifton "Specialist" Dillon — was RIAA gold-certified, peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100, reached the Billboard R&B Top Ten, and scaled the Billboard 200 albums chart to number 125. "It changed my life," Cobra said. "It took me from nothing to something."


St. Mary, Sound Systems & Penthouse:

Raised in the parish of St. Mary before returning to Kingston in his teens, Ewart Brown took his stage name from the villain in the G.I. Joe comic books and began performing on Kingston sound systems while still at school. His first studio single "Respect Woman" (1989) was produced by his uncle Delroy "Spiderman" Thompson at Tuff Gong. His first hit was "Nah Go Work" featuring Tricia McKay, which brought him to the attention of producers Captain Sinbad and Carl Nelson. A string of tough dancehall singles followed — "Shoot to Kill", "Merciless Bad Boy" and "Ze Taurus" — each building his reputation as one of the most feared and creative deejays in Jamaica.

His partnership with Penthouse Records producers Donovan Germain and Dave Kelly in 1990 was transformative. It produced a series of major Jamaican hits — "Yush", "Gundelero", "Bad Boy Talk" and "Feeling Lonely" with Beres Hammond. His debut album Bad Boy Talk was released in 1991. He then scored five UK reggae chart number ones in 1991–92, before Columbia Records signed him — following the pattern set by Shabba Ranks — in pursuit of a similar American crossover. "Flex" delivered that crossover and more. Its follow-up "Legacy" did not replicate the commercial success, and Cobra returned to recording for the Jamaican market, maintaining his credibility and his dubplate demand worldwide for decades.
