Death Of Autotune Riddim 2009

Death Of Autotune Overview

In 2009, dancehall fans were given a fresh sound with the release of the Death Of Autotune Riddim. This project was shaped by producer Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor, already known for his sharp ear and modern touch in Jamaican music. McGregor’s work on this riddim brought together a lively mix of beats and energy that stood out in the dancehall scene. The riddim quickly became a favorite at late-night parties, where its bouncing pace kept people moving until sunrise. A strong lineup of artists jumped on the riddim, each adding their own style. Tarus Riley delivered “Trapsetter,” bringing the soulful power that made his song “She’s Royal” a reggae classic. Wasp’s “Unfair Officer” gave listeners a taste of his raw and direct approach. Vybz Kartel, a name always linked with dancehall’s biggest moments, contributed two tracks: “D.O.A” and “Without My Own.” Kartel’s skill for catchy lyrics and memorable flows helped the riddim reach even wider audiences. Blak Ryno’s “Send You Go Home” added a gritty edge, showing why he was a key figure in the Portmore Empire crew. Konshens, who would later earn international fame with songs like “Gal a Bubble,” showed his early promise with “Pretty Devil.” Looking back, the Death Of Autotune Riddim was more than just a collection of songs. In 2019, when dancehall needed a boost, this set kept the genre alive on the dancefloor and in the hearts of fans everywhere.
