Song: Cheater’s Loss Remix

Artistes: Nadera featuring Tony Anthony

Cheater’s Loss – The remix is one of those songs that just grows on you. The song first caught my attention while listening to the Florida-based Foundation Radio Network with Clinton Lindsay. At first play I found it really amusing, but after tuning in to the station a few more times and hearing the song again, I started paying attention to the lyrics.

What can I say? Having Nadera going off about the cheating man in her life was one thing, but to hear how she finally realises that she is worth than being her lover’s plaything was a really great message to send out.

The listening experience was even more pleasurable with Tony Anthony in the background singing “I’m torn, torn,” while Nadera’s timely interjections takes herself out of the mix, letting him know in no uncertain terms that he can move on — without her!

Cheater’s Loss the remix is really something and makes for great entertainment.

The remix is really one of those feel good songs that provides comic relief and of course some food for thought. Besides, Nadera’s message can be embraced by any ‘feisty’ woman who knows she is more valuable than to have a man messing with her.

Nadera sums it up quite well when she dismisses the cheater:

“Mi nuh care weh yuh seh

A fi yuh bad luck

Yuh tink a eeni mini mino mo, bwoy just excuse

Yuh neva hear bout mi

Seh yuh nuh start hurt yet

Just lose my name mi naah go deh yah fi yuh choose”

Honestly, this is one of the best remixes I’ve heard in a long time … the engineer did a fantastic job in dropping out Tony’s voice at the right time, allowing Nadera the space she needs to respond and rebuff Tony’s argument of being torn. The remix gives the impression that both artistes were in the studio at the same time. In my opinion, it’s a job well done.
