BIG UP RIDDIM produced by RED SQUARE PRODUCTIONS 2013
Big Up Overview
Today, reggae fans still talk about the powerful dancehall set that echoed through clubs across Jamaica in 2013. The music brought people together, filling dance floors from Kingston to Montego Bay. Many remember how the riddim kept the energy high all night, and how its songs became favorites for DJs and dancers alike. Looking back, it’s clear that the artists helped make this set unforgettable. Spragga Benz stood out with “Uplift,” showing his lyrical skills that fans know from his long career. Spragga Benz is also famous for his hit single “She Nuh Ready Yet (Hype Up),” a song that helped define dancehall in the late 1990s. Jay — 5 brought “Big Up,” and Tajji delivered “Hustler,” both adding their own style and attitude. Jahfrica’s “Burning” and Kemmikal’s “Badda Than Them” added more fire to the mix. Each artist brought their unique sound, making the riddim rich and exciting. Behind the scenes, RED SQUARE PRODUCTIONS shaped the whole project. This production team has a strong history in dancehall, working closely with Spragga Benz over the years. Their focus on sound system culture gave the riddim its strong identity and direction. In 2013, this recording proved that Jamaican studios could still lead the way in dancehall music. For reggae fans, the Big Up Riddim is more than just a set of songs. It’s a reminder of how artists and producers can come together to create music that lasts. The energy and passion from that year still echo today.
