Cholonx Riddim – Dj Jeanie

Cholonx Riddim comes out of the Vincentian soca lane with DJ Jeanie in the producer’s chair, and the whole set plays like a short, purpose-built carnival tool rather than a bloated compilation. Jeanie has been steadily turning out soca projects over the past few years, including Side Street, The Warlords, Screw Tip, Late Notice, Big Barrel and Press It, so this sits neatly inside a catalogue that favors lean riddim packages and direct, road-ready ideas. The 2026 tag lines up with the release notes on file, and that timing matters because this is clearly aimed at the current carnival cycle.

The riddim itself is framed by just three cuts, which gives it a very focused feel: Mad Skull turns up with “Fed Up” in both clean and raw versions, while Problem Child links with Caspa G on “Cholonx Riddim. ” Mad Skull, the Vincentian artist also known as Lancelot Gloster, has long been associated with energetic Vincy soca and a sharp ear for carnival tunes, while Problem Child is one of St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ most recognizable soca voices, known for hook-heavy songs and big-road presence. Caspa G, another Vincentian carnival name, has built his profile around the local soca circuit as well, which makes this a very regional, very SVG-centered package.

What gives Cholonx Riddim its shape is that there is no fat on it. Mad Skull’s double serving suggests the record is being pushed hard for both clean radio and raw fete use, a common soca move when a song has enough bounce to work in different settings. Problem Child’s inclusion is the one that gives the project extra weight, because he is the higher-profile voice here and usually brings the kind of command that can push a riddim beyond its home base. If the title track is any guide, the mood is geared toward party pressure and carnival mischief rather than glossy crossover polish. This is the sort of release that lives or dies on energy and execution, and with these names on board it has the local firepower to do exactly that.
