BACK 2 BASICS RIDDIM produced by STAR KUTT RECORDS
Back 2 Basics Overview
Back 2 Basics Riddim, produced by STAR KUTT RECORDS in 2011, brought a fresh wave to the dancehall scene. STAR KUTT RECORDS, known for pushing new sounds in Jamaican music, carefully crafted this project in the studio. The production team focused on capturing the raw, street energy that defines dancehall. Their attention to detail in the mixing and arrangement gave the riddim its bold, yard-style beat, which quickly caught the ears of fans and DJs alike. The riddim’s power is shaped by some of dancehall’s most respected voices. Beenie Man delivers two standout tracks, “Progress” and “Shit Up,” each showing his sharp lyrical skills and unique flow. Bling Dawg’s “Chuck Off Again” brings a playful but commanding presence, fitting right into the riddim’s groove. Bounty Killer, a legend in his own right, adds serious weight with “Gyaal” and “Shut Up,” both tracks filled with his signature grit and authority. Busy Signal’s “Can’t Live So” rides the riddim with smooth delivery, bringing a modern touch to the yard beat. Demarco gives the dancefloor energy with “Move Unuh Self,” and teams up with Elephant Man for “Yah Wi Born, Yah Wi Live,” a song that celebrates Jamaican pride and unity. Elephant Man also shines solo with “Party Fans,” a track made for the dance. Every artist on Back 2 Basics Riddim helps keep the authentic dancehall spirit alive. The yard beat, expertly produced by STAR KUTT RECORDS, remains a strong part of dancehall history, remembered for its energy and the way it brought top artists together on one powerful rhythm.
