DAZZLING RIDDIM produced by FREE WILLY PUBLISHING 2009
Dazzling Overview
In 2009, reggae music saw a return to its roots with the release of the Dazzling Riddim. The riddim used a rocksteady flow, a style that began in Jamaica in the late 1960s. Rocksteady is known for its steady rhythm and soulful melodies, and this riddim followed that tradition, keeping the classic reggae structure alive. The project was produced by FREE WILLY PUBLISHING, a label known for supporting authentic reggae sounds. Over the years, FREE WILLY PUBLISHING has helped bring several reggae projects to a wider audience, focusing on both established and rising artists. One of the standout tracks is “My Neighbour” by Cherine Anderson Feat Beenie Man. Cherine Anderson is a Jamaican singer and actress, well known for her work in reggae and dancehall. Beenie Man, who also appears on “My Neighbour,” is often called the “King of Dancehall.” He is famous for hits like “Who Am I (Sim Simma)” and has won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album in 2001. Daville appears on the riddim with “Bitter Sweet Love.” Daville is recognized for his smooth vocals and songs like “Always on My Mind.” Perfect delivers “Gucci Bag Love,” adding his unique voice to the project. Devonte’s “Hyper Active” brings energy, while David King’s “Deciever” rounds out the lineup. With these artists and the guidance of FREE WILLY PUBLISHING, the Dazzling Riddim kept the rocksteady spirit strong in 2009, reminding listeners of reggae’s powerful roots.
