ANSWER RIDDIM 2006
Answer Overview
The “Answer Riddim” arrived on the reggae scene in 2006. This cultural recording came out during a time when reggae riddims continued to shape the sound of dancehall and roots reggae. The riddim stands as a strong example of reggae’s influence in the mid-2000s. Two artists feature on this release: Gounz Man and Together Forever Family. Gounz Man is heard with the track “Judgement Flames.” Known for his energetic delivery, Gounz Man has built a following with his approach to conscious reggae lyrics. His song “Judgement Flames” shows his style, combining a serious message with the heavy bass and classic reggae rhythm. Together Forever Family brings their own energy to the riddim with “Take Me Now.” Their contribution adds a different flavor, but still keeps the roots of reggae at the center. The group is recognized for their harmonies and commitment to the culture, and “Take Me Now” fits well within their body of work. The riddim itself is built on deep basslines and a steady drum pattern, giving it a timeless reggae feel. The dub cut of the “Answer Riddim” is still respected by fans and selectors, often played as a foundation in reggae sets. The sound architect behind the riddim focused on keeping it simple and powerful, which helped the recording stand out in 2006. Overall, the “Answer Riddim” remains a strong proof of reggae’s lasting strength and its ability to bring artists together on a single, powerful beat.
