Back Broke jumps to 4,389 spins weekly!!

How Jr. Pinchers is doing despite his lack of a full blown U.S. campaign? As artist like Sean Paul, and Sean Kingston kick their campaigns in over drive here in the US. Jr. Pinchers enjoys a steady accent to the top 20 in Jamaica, a key demographic if you are an artist with an Island background.


Both Sean's are on the Top40R charts (with Sean Paul at number 22 with 1,890 spins for his single "So Fine," loosing -364 spins from the previous week). Sean Kingston sits at number 17 (with 2,365 spins for "Fire Burning," also loosing -535 spins from the previous week). In comparison Jr. Pinchers consistently gets 3,000+ spins a week since the song was pre-released on Imeem. Though he lacks a major U.S. campaign for the single "Back Broke", Jr. P's new single spun 3,769 times last week (and gained another +620 spins this week). Given the number of spins Jr. P is getting without a major U.S. campaign (total number of 4,389 spins the week of 8-10 to 8-17) he would be sitting at number 7 on the TOP40R charts ahead of Jeremih's "Birthday Sex" a popular Hip hop song, behind the likes of Drake, Young Money, Black eyed Peas, Kerri Hilson, and Pit bull, the only artist on the charts above him that has a song in his same category/Genre.

According to the streets Jr. Pinchers “Back Broke” is hotter than both Sean’s combined effort (4,255 spins combined) Back Broke would still be spinning +134 spins more a week, all without a major U.S. campaign. Don’t believe me see for yourself, I have included the chart ending 8-17 as proof that getting the streets behind you is the first step to making it big, no matter where your streets may be.


This chart is presented as an example to where the artist would sit if his campaign was in the U.S. this chart does not represent the actual chart published by All Access Music Group.

With the release of his newest dis track “Imitators” Jr. P is enjoying a steady climb on to the charts and hearts of Jamaica. As a side note “Imitators” was being downloaded a blazing 1000 times per hour for a period of 14 hours over the weekend. Since being released at 12:01 am on 8-15-09, the single has been downloaded a total of 80,000 and counting. I don’t know any major artist right now moving those kinds of numbers in this environment but the single was Free, a tease of what’s to come from his new Project, his 2nd album he is currently recording.

Jr. Pinchers new album is changing the music landscape in Jamaica

Bob Marley is credited with bringing the world Reggae music which still reigns as the number one selling album on iTunes (Legends Remastered). Scan the Reggae top 10 singles and you will find “Three Little Birds” as number one, followed quietly by Shaggy’s “It wasn't Me”. In fact when you scan iTunes you will find more “Top 40 Adult Contemporary (AC)” Reggae, it’s what the rest of the world is snapping up. But… what happens when other artist grow cold, have no new material and need to get back on the “hot now” train? The answer; switch music genre’s so you can appeal to a wider audience and find a style that others have already done, and then hop on their train. Well if you are a young artist like Jr. Pinchers, you are the Locomotive, the lead conductor, and the train station everyone else uses to get back on top.

"Back Broke", technically is an Electronic song according to iTunes, the largest digital music retailer in the world, and does not easily fit the current radio format of dominate stations like Irie FM, known more for their smooth Reggae vibes and news based morning shows hosted by Ron Muchette. So how does an artist from Jamaica, whose fan base knows him more for soft Reggae love songs, do on radio dominated by controversial dancehall singles laced with lyrics that get them banned off of the radio as fast as they can play them? Quite well, Jr. Pinchers first single is enjoying heavy rotation on Irie FM; Zip FM and Hit FM among others and is gaining momentum/stations daily.

How does this match up to what Jamaicans are listening to on the radio in Jamaica? I took a look at some of the charts used in Jamaica to gauge the top 20 songs. If you use “Richie B’s Energy Beat chart” or “Stampede Street Charts” you will find that what is popular on iTunes does not match up to either chart. I also took some time to review the top singles on both charts and realized that in Jamaica it’s all about the Dancehall (Jamaica’s answer to Hip-hop/Rap of the U.S.). Dancehall is more bravado, more sexual, and grittier than the smooth vibes of Reggae music. Enter any dance hall in Jamaica, you will find more of the “dance” in “Dancehall” and people who will jump from the tops of speakers rising 2.5 stories high. Dancehall is that pent up frustration that needs an outlet on the weekends, so you can go back to work Monday with a clear head.

Juniors’s new style has caught the attention and hearts of the people of Jamaica, so much so that other artist took notice almost immediately. Back Broke is the first single off of Jr. Pinchers as yet untitled 2nd album is a mash-up of hip-hop, Rock, Pop, Dance, and Electronic music all rolled into one, a style that Twinz Beatz call “Slop-Hop.” Reviewing these charts you also realize that what SloppiShizzle Records artist Jr. Pinchers and Producers Twinz Beatz are doing does not fit into either genre, a clear departure from the traditional Reggae or Dancehall album. Dancehall albums in Jamaica are more a mash-up of singles from the top ten to twenty artist playing on the radio with albums released by TAD’S, Roaring Lion, JamJam, and VP Records. Scrambling to release new music, many artists have hit the boardrooms and basement studios to replicate this "new sound". The streets aren't the only ones who noticed these "copy cats". Jr. Pinchers stepped into the studio and recorded a track which can be called a "dis track", but he says he's "just keeping it real"... you be the judge.

Listen/download the new track called “Imitators,” from his SloppiShizzle Records Official Website then give your feedback directly to Jr. P via email(JrPinchers@SloppiShizzleRecords.com)then call your local radio stations and demand they call out all the "Imitators" on their stations by name… But I could be getting ahead of myself, after all “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”, but I somehow doubt that other artists are being sincere.

Jr. Pinchers Back Broke "Breaks" onto the charts in Jamaica!

Reason to Celebrate
Jr. Pinchers has reasons these days to celebrate. Back Broke his first single off of his as yet untitled 2nd album just "Broke" onto the charts this Wednesday. “Back Broke” is a fusion of Hip Hop and electronic music, a style that has been pioneered by Twinz Beatz. “Slop-tronic”, the fusion of sounds is influencing artist in the U.S. and Jamaica. Producers Twinz Beatz of SloppiShizzle Records have been creating “Slop-Hop” for some time now and they have been waiting for the industry to come full circle and catch up to them when it comes to arrangements and sound quality. Jr. Pinchers style of mixing “rapping” & “singing” in a very cohesive way is now showing up in a number of new tracks on the airwaves. This collaboration of “Twinz Beatz sound” and Jr. Pinchers “unique” vocal style can only mean one thing…”Super Smash.”



The song is infectious
Jr. Pinchers new single is very different from the material most Jamaican listeners were used to but resistance to his “new” sound soon faded when the infectious hook took hold of you. Dj. Bill Kelly the “Godfather of House” said “Back Broke is no track, this is a song!” The single is an anthem to “all things fun!” The hook says it all with “Whine until you’re Back broke! Whine till your back broke, take the dance floor and mash it up, show dem’ girls there what’s up? Whine until your Back Broke, Girl I’ll make you hot so!” Whine until you’re Back broke, whine-whine- whine!” With Sax hooks, deep base rhythms, and a pace that will wear out even the most demanding dancers. Jr. Pinchers first single will soon start filling Hospital E.R.’s with people who have thrown out their backs, on the dance floors, to this infectious rhythm.




Rave reviews on ITunes
A 5-star rating on ITunes does not hurt…The single is enjoying a healthy amount of competition from other singles released the same day by industry heavy weights like Kanye West, The Dream, and Nelly Furtado. With sales of the single reaching as far away as Australia, Jr. Pinchers is doing what he has stated in earlier interviews, "I have been in Miami for two and a half months. I have been trying to extend myself. You have to go out there and take it. You need to go out and bring people to reggae," Junior Pinchers said. Other reviews available to read on ITunes call the song, “amazing!”, “Hottest track of 2009!”, “I am obsessed, love this song”, “Jam of the summer”, and “The beat takes on a style of its own. It’s nice to hear something that does not fall into the same category as all the sub-par music that’s been coming out lately.” The single is enjoying brisk sales on ITunes and is head to head with Grammy artist. Is there a Grammy for Back broke next year?




Often imitated but never...
The single has also created an unexpected shift in the music industry in Jamaica and abroad. Twinz Beatz unambiguous sound is being imitated in several songs currently enjoying heavy rotation as a result of Jr. Pinchers new single. This “sound” can be heard when artist try to speed up a beat and then attempt to use Jr. Pinchers “rapping but sung like lyrical style” to try and compliment the song to make it “hot.” But imitations are never as good as the original. Why eat imitation crab when crab meat is the best you can get. What is Jr. Pinchers response to this? Sources, quoted “off the record “say there is a “dis track” yet to be released. If anyone gets their hands on it I am offering a small fortune for it!

Labels response?
So what does the label have to say about Jr. Pinchers new single hitting the charts this week? Or about the imitators jumping on the coat tails of Jr.’s new sound?

"We are very pleased with the work that Jr. Pinchers has been doing in the studio. The response on ITunes and other digital download sites has been better than expected, given the category of music the single falls into (Electronic). Twinz Beatz continues to produce amazing tracks and the vibe in the studio means only one thing...Platinum album." As for the imitators trying to get that Twinz Beatz sound, it would just be easier to get the original sound vs. the imitation.”

That leaves only one question? What is next for Jr. Pinchers?
