CHERRY OH BABY RIDDIM produced by FATHER & SON RECORDS 1992
Cherry Oh Baby Overview
The Cherry Oh Baby Riddim, released in 1992, stands out for its lively percussion and classic reggae groove. The rhythm is steady and inviting, with deep basslines and sharp drum patterns that give it a true dancehall energy. It carries a joyful yet rootsy sound, mixing cultural messages with a party feel. The riddim’s structure lets each artist shine while keeping a unified vibe across all tracks. Capleton brings his powerful voice and conscious lyrics to “Murderation.” Known for his fiery delivery and later hits like “Tour” and “Jah Jah City,” Capleton’s performance here is full of energy and message. Captain Barkey And Wickerman join forces on “Property,” blending humor and social commentary. Their chemistry is well known in dancehall, and this track shows their ability to connect with the audience. Powerman’s “Dem A Pose Up” rides the riddim with a catchy hook and playful style. Powerman is recognized for his witty lyrics and strong presence in the early 1990s dancehall scene. Johnny P delivers “Come Pick Cherry,” adding a smooth, melodic touch. Johnny P gained fame with songs like “Bike Back,” and his voice brings a lighter mood to the riddim. Reggie Stepper’s “Sample” is another highlight. Reggie Stepper is famous for his hit “Cu-Oonuh,” and here he adds his unique vocal flair and rhythmic chanting. FATHER and SON RECORDS played a key role in bringing this riddim to life.
