This riddim was crafted by the well-known producer King Jammy, who is celebrated for his influential role in shaping the digital dancehall era. The "Carpenter Riddim" features several talented artists, each bringing their unique style to the mix. George Nooks added his soulful touch with the song "Real Love," showcasing his smooth vocal delivery. Half Pint, known for his hit "Greetings," contributed "My Woman," adding a classic reggae vibe to the riddim. Keri's track "Carpenter" is another highlight, blending perfectly with the riddim's mellow lines. Lady G, a pioneering female voice in reggae, delivered "What Happen," bringing her strong lyrical presence to the collection. Louie Culture, who gained attention with "Gangalee," offered "Rich in Life," emphasizing positive messages and life lessons. Other artists also shone on the riddim. Luciano's "Brother Man" and Lukie D's "In My Soul" added depth and richness to the compilation.
