Monkey Barrel Overview

In 2012, the Monkey Barrel Riddim arrived with a strong and rebellious energy that captured the spirit of its time in dancehall. Unlike some other riddim sets from that era, which often favored digital sounds or smoother, pop-influenced rhythms, Monkey Barrel stood out for its heavy percussion and raw edge. This gave the riddim a unique character and helped it stay memorable even years later. Ward 21, known for their clever lyrics and tough delivery, led the set with "Kingston And St. Andrew." Their performance matched the riddim’s bold style. Degree brought his signature flair to "Haul And Pull," giving the track a lively, party feel. Point O added a playful touch with "More Gal," while Bling Dawg’s "Life In The Sunshine" delivered positive vibes. Gappy Ranks, with "Good Luck," offered a smooth but powerful message, showing the riddim’s range. Other artists like Craigy T with "Your Name A Call" and Red Rat’s "A Couple More Rounds" added more layers to the project. Timberlee’s "Prescription Make-Up," Mega B’s "Time Fi A Gal," and Million Stylez’s "Tell Dem Straight" all brought their own flavors, making the riddim a well-rounded showcase of talent. The producer, WARD 21 MUSIC | WILETUNES PRODUCTIONS, played a key role. Known for their deep roots in dancehall and a history of shaping the genre’s sound, they crafted the riddim’s percussion-driven style. This careful studio work gave Monkey Barrel its strong identity. Today, Monkey Barrel Riddim is still seen as an important piece of dancehall history. Its mix of artists, songs, and production set it apart from other releases of its era.
