Chalwah Overview

In 2007, reggae fans got a fresh sound with the roots riddim known as Chalwah Riddim. This riddim stood out for its deep, conscious feel and the way it blended classic reggae with hints of other genres. The steady bass and drum foundation gave the music a strong roots vibe, but you could also hear touches of modern reggae and even a bit of dancehall energy. Three artists gave the riddim its own character. Ed Robinson, known for his hit song “Knocking on Heaven’s Door,” brought his smooth vocals to “Take It Easy.” His voice added warmth and a classic touch to the track. Nozzle Up Crew performed “To The Left,” adding a lively, energetic style that gave the riddim a modern twist. Rah Shiloh, who is respected for his powerful roots reggae voice, sang “A Story 2 Tell.” He is known for his album "From Rasta to You," which made an impact in the roots scene. The dub engineer played a big role in shaping the final sound, using effects and mixing skills to make the riddim deep and rich. The producer, VARIOUS ARTISTS, is recognized for working on many reggae projects and helping new talent get noticed. In 2007, Chalwah Riddim showed how roots reggae could grow by mixing old and new styles, with each artist and the production team making the music shine.
