In 2013, reggae was moving in many directions, but the Inspiration Riddim stood out for its deep roots sound. The riddim’s steady bass and classic one-drop drums gave it a timeless feel, while still sounding fresh for its year. This made it a favorite among roots selectors who wanted to keep the culture alive on dancefloors and radio.

With a history of working with both new and established artists, ADIGUN PRODUCTION helped shape the sound of the early 2010s reggae scene.

Each artist brings their own style, but the riddim ties the songs together as a strong cultural statement from 2013.
