Circle Overview

In 2019, the Circle Riddim made an impact on reggae and roots playlists. The release brought together strong artists and a classic reggae sound, with a dub cut that blended well with other genres. The dub version of the riddim mixes roots reggae with touches of dancehall and even hints of hip hop. This made it popular not just for reggae fans, but also for people who enjoy other styles of music. Lyricson’s song “No Retreat” stands out for its powerful message. Lyricson is known for his energetic performances and has worked with international artists like Manu Chao. Jah Mason delivers “Attention,” bringing his signature deep voice. Jah Mason is well known for his hit “My Princess Gone,” which reached reggae charts in the mid-2000s. Tiwony’s “Ting A Ling” adds a melodic touch, showing why he is respected in both the French and Caribbean reggae scenes. Ranco’s “High” and Straika D’s “La Haut” also bring their own flavors to the riddim, each artist adding a unique style. The set is rounded out by Mad General with “Good Sound” and Caporal Negus on “Longtime,” keeping the roots vibe strong. KROSS and amp;BUSS PRODUCTION produced the riddim.
