CRAZY RAVING RIDDIM produced by 17A RECORDS 2014
Crazy Raving Overview
17A RECORDS was the label behind the yard beat that brought fresh energy to dancehall in 2014. Known for shaping new riddims and working with both established and rising artists, 17A RECORDS made a name for itself by blending classic dancehall sounds with modern production. Their work on this release showed how a studio could unite many voices while keeping the raw, street-level vibe that fans love. The riddim saw strong contributions from Alison Hinds, Chico, Marcus I, Dadigon, and Determine. Alison Hinds, famous for her soca hit “Roll It Gal,” brought her powerful style to “Body Burn.” Chico, who worked with Beenie Man on the popular track “Bun Fi Bun,” delivered “Hey Girl,” adding his signature flow. Marcus I’s “Better Day” gave the riddim a thoughtful touch, while Dadigon’s “One Draw” and Determine’s “Wine For Me” kept the party mood alive. Each artist rode the riddim with their own flavor, but the production by 17A RECORDS tied everything together. The label’s focus on singjay style—where artists mix singing and DJ chatting—gave the release a unique unity. The yard beat’s heavy bass and sharp snares made it a favorite for dancefloors, but the songs also offered moments for deeper listening. This bashment release proved how strong yard studios remained in 2014. With 17A RECORDS at the controls and a lineup of artists bringing their best, the riddim captured the true spirit of dancehall’s collaborative energy.
