Country Living Riddim – Rufftouch Movement

COUNTRY LIVING RIDDIM produced by RUFFTOUCH MOVEMENT 2018

Country Living Overview

In 2018, three reggae artists came together for a roots project that still stands out today. Alethia, G Star, and Gappy Ranks each brought their own style and message to the Country Living Riddim. Gappy Ranks, known for his hit song “Heaven in Her Eyes,” has made a name for himself in the UK reggae scene. G Star’s track “Mama Africa” delivers a heartfelt tribute, while Alethia’s “Going Back” adds a soulful touch to the release. The Country Living Riddim was produced by RUFFTOUCH MOVEMENT, a team with a strong reputation for creating conscious reggae music. RUFFTOUCH MOVEMENT has worked with several respected artists and is known for keeping the roots sound alive in modern reggae. Their productions often focus on melodic progressions and meaningful lyrics, making them a favorite among selectors and reggae fans. This project came together with a clear goal: to mix culture, message, and melody. Each artist’s song fits perfectly over the rootsy instrumental, giving listeners both something to think about and something to move to. Even years later, the Country Living Riddim is remembered as a highlight of 2018 reggae. It captured the spirit of the time and showed how modern artists and producers can keep reggae traditions strong while adding their own voice. For anyone looking back at reggae from that year, this riddim is hard to forget.
