Crush Time Overview

Crush Time Riddim came out of Jamaica in 2012 and quickly became a big part of that year’s dancehall sound. The riddim is full of heavy bass and sharp, catchy rhythms that made it popular in dancehall parties and on radio. A group of strong artists brought their own style to the riddim. Dwayno’s “War Nuh Verbal” stands out with its tough lyrics and energetic delivery. Dwayno is known for his lyrical skill and has worked with major names in dancehall, making his track a highlight on this release. Flash Raggedy’s “Ever Up” keeps the energy high, showing his talent for catchy hooks. Gaza Maxwell delivers “Bad Nuh C**T,” a song that shows his raw style. Gaza Maxwell was known for his unique voice in the Gaza camp before his untimely passing in 2009, and his music is still respected today. Kari Jess brings “Sell Out,” adding a different vibe to the riddim with his smooth flow. Tenza’s “Cheap Talk” gives a strong, confident performance. Tenza is a UK-based dancehall artist who has earned attention for her solo work and for being part of the group FYA, which had UK chart success with “Must Be Love” in 2004. Toppa Bling’s “We Nuh Frighten” and Frassout & Raggedy’s “Crush Time Riddim” round out the release, keeping the energy consistent. The production was handled by FRASSOUT / RAGGEDY PRODUCTION, a team known for their work in dancehall and for supporting rising artists. Their careful mixing and signature sound helped make this riddim a favorite for selectors. Even today, DJs still play Crush Time Riddim, keeping the spirit of 2012 alive in dancehall sessions.
