Johnny Osbourne, a legendary singer famous for hits like "Buddy Bye," contributed "Reasons." Junior Reid, who once led the group Black Uhuru and is known for "One Blood," added his song "Bubblers" to the mix. Little John, a well-known dancehall artist, performed "True Confession," while Prisoner Of War gave the compilation "Sit An Wonder."

The label has worked with many top reggae artists and is known for its influence on the modern reggae sound. Taxi Riddim’s sound fits perfectly with the reggae music of 1995. The riddim has a classic, vintage-inspired feel, but the songs from Buccaneer, Johnny Osbourne, and Junior Reid bring a relaxed and confident energy. Each artist’s unique voice adds something special to the project. MASSIVE B’s production helps the riddim stand out, making it a favorite for reggae fans during that time.
