Arise Rootsman – Jamaican Roots – Coxson Overview

The Coxson riddim is making a strong impact in today’s reggae scene. This roots reggae track brings together classic sounds with new ideas. It fits well in modern sets, showing how roots reggae can move forward while keeping its foundation. The riddim blends with other genres by using deep basslines and steady drum patterns. These elements allow artists to add their own style, sometimes mixing in touches of dub or early dancehall. This makes the riddim appealing to a wide range of listeners. Artists like 122 bring energy with Glen Brown-2 Wedden Skank-Ill. Alton Ellis, known as the “Godfather of Rocksteady,” delivers a powerful message in Black Man’s Pride. Anthony Johnson, who found success with the song Gunshot, adds his voice to Dreadlocks. Augustus Pablo, famous for his melodica and the album King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown, brings a unique sound with Eli’s Move. Big Yout and Keith Hudson work together on Can You Keep A Secret, blending vocals and rhythms. Big Youth, with a classic like The Killer, adds his own flavor. Each artist plays a role, showing the riddim’s flexibility. The roots selector is important too, choosing the right tracks and keeping the energy alive in reggae dances. Produced by Arise Rootsman, who is known for deep roots productions, this project brings old and new together, making the Coxson riddim a favorite in today’s reggae sessions.
