CITY LIFE RIDDIM produced by 2 HARD RECORDS
City Life Overview
The City Life Riddim, released in 2010 by 2 HARD RECORDS, is a reggae riddim that stands out for its mix of modern style and classic reggae roots. The dub cut on this project connects today’s artists with the deep, echoing sounds of older roots reggae. Compared to other roots drops of its era, the City Life Riddim dub cut uses a warmer bass and more spacious effects, creating a timeless feeling that many fans still enjoy. Sean Paul’s “Beat Of My Heart” brings his signature energy, while Elephant Man’s “Let Me Be The Man” adds a lively, dancehall-inspired touch. Denyque’s “Supergirl” offers a smooth, soulful vibe, showing the riddim’s versatility. Natel’s “Miles Away” and Wayne Marshall’s “Telepathic” both ride the riddim with strong vocals and catchy melodies. Each artist brings something special, but the dub cut ties all their voices together with its classic reggae flow. Queen Ifrica’s “Times Like These,” Assassin’s “Something'S Gotta Give,” and Tarrus Riley’s “Who'S Responsible” add conscious lyrics and powerful delivery, making the riddim more than just a dance track. Tony Rebel’s “Love Soldier” continues the positive message, while the “City Life Riddim” version lets listeners enjoy the pure instrumental. 2 HARD RECORDS, the producer behind this project, has a history of working with top reggae and dancehall artists. Their careful sound design and focus on unity shine through in every track. The City Life Riddim dub cut remains an important part of reggae history, linking new voices with the roots of the genre and keeping the spirit of reggae alive.
