BOOM RIDDIM by Marly B of ILL-MATIC RECORDS 2019
Boom Overview
In 2019, the Boom Riddim compilation gave young reggae singers a real chance to shine. The project was produced by Marly B of ILL-MATIC RECORDS, a label known for supporting new talent and keeping reggae’s classic sound alive. Marly B is not only a producer but also a singer on the project, with tracks like "Boom Riddim" and "Far Place." ILL-MATIC RECORDS has built a reputation for releasing roots reggae that respects the genre’s traditions. The riddim itself stands out among other 2019 reggae compilations because of its strong foundation-style beat. Many riddims at that time mixed dancehall or pop, but Boom Riddim stayed true to a timeless reggae groove. This helped every artist sound united, from I Marley’s "Babylon Nuh Getaway" to Night Hawk’s "Can't Diss We." The rhythm gives each song a smooth flow, making it easy to listen from start to finish. Some artists here already have career highlights. For example, I Marley is known for his conscious lyrics and has worked with several respected reggae artists in the past. Marly B, as a producer and singer, is recognized for his work in building ILL-MATIC RECORDS and supporting new voices. Other tracks like Italis with "Chatty Chatty Mouth" and Euro Staxx’s "Ghetto Entrepreneur" add different flavors, but all keep the reggae spirit strong.
