Tun Cornmeal Overview

In 2013, the dancehall set was a powerful force in Jamaican music culture. These sessions, often held in small clubs or on street corners, brought people together to enjoy the latest sounds. The music was loud, the energy was high, and the riddims kept the crowd moving all night. Dancehall sets like these were important because they gave artists and producers a place to test new songs and connect with fans. A big part of the dancehall set’s magic came from the bashment arranger. This person shaped the sound of the session, choosing which songs played and when. Their choices could turn a regular night into an unforgettable one, mixing the hottest tracks and keeping the crowd excited. The arranger’s skill made sure each song flowed smoothly into the next, creating a non-stop vibe. PLATINUM FRANCHISE RECORDS played a key role in this era. As a producer, the label was known for its sharp ear for hits and its ability to bring together top artists. In 2013, they released the Tun Cornmeal Riddim, a dancehall riddim with strong, catchy grooves. The label helped push the sound beyond Jamaica, reaching new listeners worldwide. Artists like Bugle, Deva Bratt, and Dean Loyal stood out on this riddim. Bugle’s “Tutor,” Deva Bratt’s “Another Night,” and Dean Loyal’s “Draw Me Out” each brought their own style and energy. Their performances were filled with raw emotion and real street flavor, giving the riddim its unique character. Looking back, this dancehall set helped keep the genre alive in 2013. With bold production, talented artists, and the guiding hand of the arranger, the music reached new heights and left a mark on dancehall history.
