RATTLE SNAKE RIDDIM produced by DUTCHPOT 2000
Rattle Snake Overview
In the year 2000, dancehall music was full of energy and new ideas. The Rattle Snake Riddim stood out as a strong street anthem. Its base mixed hard drum patterns with catchy hooks, making it different from other bashment projects of that time. While some riddims focused on smooth or digital sounds, Rattle Snake had a raw and direct vibe that made it popular in parties and sound clashes. Bounty Killer’s “Tear Dem World” is a highlight on the riddim. Known for his powerful voice, Bounty Killer already had big hits like “Look” and was respected for his work with artists such as No Doubt. His performance on this project showed why he is a dancehall legend. Chrissy D and General Degree teamed up for “Nicess Time,” bringing a lighter, more playful side to the riddim. General Degree also appears solo with “Missa Boss,” adding his style and humor. Elephant Man’s “Fassy Satalite” delivers his usual high energy. By 2000, Elephant Man was already known for his wild stage presence and would later earn the nickname “Energy God.” Richie Stephens adds a smooth touch with “Girls.” He is known for his soulful voice and work with Motown Records in the 1990s. Behind all these tracks is producer DUTCHPOT. Known for shaping bashment hits, DUTCHPOT worked with several top artists and helped bring a fresh sound to dancehall. The Rattle Snake Riddim is a key memory for fans of the 2000 era, showing the best of bashment music.
