Billy Jean Overview

In 2015, a group of talented reggae artists came together in the studio to create a powerful recording. The musicians built the musical backdrop with live instruments and deep basslines, capturing the roots reggae spirit. The energy in the studio was high as everyone worked together, each artist adding their own style over the same riddim. The producer behind this project was RUN THINGS RECORDS, a label known in the reggae world for supporting both new and veteran artists. RUN THINGS RECORDS has a long history in Jamaican music, with releases that have reached listeners far beyond the island. Their creative direction on this release kept the sound energetic and true to the foundation of reggae. Luciano, a respected voice in roots reggae, delivered the song "Nuh Sound Test." Luciano is famous for his uplifting lyrics and has released albums like "Where There Is Life." His song on this riddim brings a spiritual message and strong vocals. Pinchers, another well-known name, performed "Sound Bwoy Yuh Cah Hide." Pinchers is recognized for his hit "Bandelero," which reached international reggae charts in the late 1980s. On this recording, his smooth delivery stands out. Junior Cat brought his rough DJ style to "Send Sound Come," giving the riddim a streetwise edge. Junior Cat is known for his work in the dancehall scene, always bringing energy to his performances. Capleton, famous for songs like "Jah Jah City," added "Dubplate A Bust In A Dem Head" to the mix. Capleton is a major figure in reggae and dancehall, known for his fiery lyrics and stage presence. Together, these artists made a recording that showed reggae music at its strongest in 2015.
