BLINK RIDDIM produced by BLACK SHADOW 2005
Blink Overview
In 2005, the dancehall scene was electrified by the release of the Blink Riddim, a creation that showcased the innovative touch of producer BLACK SHADOW. Known for his work on the global hit "Gimme the Light" by Sean Paul, BLACK SHADOW brought his expertise to this project, infusing it with modern bashment elements and heavy basslines that resonated deeply within the dancehall community. The Blink Riddim was a platform for some of the genre's most dynamic artists. Assassin, with his track "Roll," delivered a powerful performance that highlighted his lyrical prowess, reminiscent of his work on the critically acclaimed album "Theory of Reggaetivity." Beenie Man, a stalwart in the dancehall scene, contributed "My Life," adding yet another hit to his illustrious career that includes Grammy-winning albums.

Years after its release, selectors still reach for the Blink Riddim, a testament to its enduring appeal.
