Cream Soda Riddim (2021) – Pure Music Productions

Pure Music Productions used Cream Soda Riddim to cut a lively 2021 dancehall set that sits comfortably in the harder end of the genre. The riddim is driven by a bright, bouncy pulse and a steady 90 BPM feel, with enough space for both aggressive deejay cuts and more melodic hooks. Delly Ranx is credited as the producer behind the project, and his own fingerprints are all over it in the way the tracks move between party talk, streetwise posture, and plain old boast mode.

The lineup mixes veteran voices and sharper newer names. Chuck Fenda brings the warning-shot energy of The System, while Pressure Busspipe’s Easy gives the riddim one of its more melodic turns. Delly Ranx appears twice, with Nuh Wah See Dem and The Hustler, and both cuts lean into his familiar hustling, no-nonsense style. Kiprich’s Liquor pushes the party angle, and Maestro Don, Norris Man, and Amlak Redsquare each add their own rough-edged character. Bottle by Log On Unknown and Vybrid gives the set a rowdier, more giddy club feel.

What makes Cream Soda work is the balance between swagger and swing. It is not polished into softness; the beat has bite, and the voices ride that tension with enough personality to keep the juggling interesting. In a year crowded with dancehall riddims, this one earned its place by sounding built for real sound system rotation rather than background streaming.
