Bounce Riddim – May B Unity 2022
Bounce Overview
In reggae music, the one drop rhythm is a key part of the sound. This steady drum pattern, with its heavy emphasis on the third beat, has shaped roots reggae for decades. In 2022, the Bounce Riddim album collection brought this classic style back to the front, reminding fans why the one drop beat is so powerful. Roots reggae is known for its deep messages and careful musicianship. On this album, artists use their voices and lyrics to talk about real life and hope. Natty King stands out with “Real Black Woman.” He is respected in reggae for his strong roots songs, and is known for the hit “No Guns To Town,” which helped make his name in the early 2000s. His style brings strength and pride to the collection. Jah Rain’s “Jah As Given Us” adds a spiritual touch. Ras Myrdhak, with “One Love,” keeps the message of unity alive. Culture Dan’s “Mood Is Right” brings a lively energy, while Fayaman’s “Blessing Youth” encourages young people to stay positive. Each artist delivers their own message, but all are connected by the deep, rolling bass and steady drums of the one drop. The album also features Positiv Young Lion with “Ne Pleure Pas,” Perle Lama’s “You and Me,” and B Unity’s “Bounce Riddim.” Together, these tracks show the lasting appeal of roots reggae. In 2022, this collection proved that reggae’s classic sound still has the power to inspire and bring people together.
