Another Dollar Overview
The 2013 release of Another Dollar Riddim by PENTHOUSE RECORDS brought a fresh spotlight to young reggae artists, giving them a strong cultural platform. The riddim is built on the classic one drop base, a signature reggae rhythm that helps anchor the songs with a deep, steady groove. This foundation allows the tracks to blend naturally with touches of soul, dancehall, and even pop influences, making the project feel both classic and modern. Romain Virgo’s “Another Day Another Dollar” stands out with its heartfelt vocals and hopeful message, showing Virgo’s strength as a young roots singer. Duane Stephenson Ft. Exco Levi deliver “Real Man You Want,” bringing thoughtful lyrics and smooth harmonies that appeal to fans of conscious reggae. Tessanne Ft. Busy Signal, and Busy Signal – Don’T Wanna Fight, add a new energy to the riddim, mixing soulful melodies with dancehall flows. Mickey Spice’s “Bad Girl” keeps the roots vibe alive, while Kiprich’s “No Fake Friends” adds a touch of dancehall storytelling. Zamunda’s “Root Reggae” brings the message back to the genre’s foundation, and O.K’s “Glad You’Re My Girl” offers a lighter, romantic side. Jimmy Riley’s “What Can I Do” rounds out the project with a classic voice. PENTHOUSE RECORDS, known for launching the careers of many reggae stars since the late 1980s, played a key role in shaping this project. Their experience and careful production helped each artist shine while keeping the riddim’s flow smooth and unified. The one drop base remains a vital part of reggae’s history, and Another Dollar Riddim shows how it continues to inspire new generations.
