Devotion Riddim – Notnice Records

Devotion Riddim arrived in 2014 from Notnice Records, the Kingston label built around Ainsley “Notnice” Morris, a producer known for crisp, rhythm-first dancehall and for pairing street energy with polished, radio-ready sound. The riddim sits right in that lane: bright, melodic, and punchy, with a clean bounce that leaves room for the hooks to do the damage.

The biggest names on it are the ones you’d expect from that 2014 moment in dancehall. Popcaan’s Only Jah Know gives the project its most immediate pull, folding his singjay edge into a reflective, easy-to-repeat hook. Alkaline turns up twice, with On And On and Weh We Ago Do, both released in clean and raw versions, and that dual presentation underlines how strongly the riddim could work across radio and street spaces. Jahmiel’s Real Father adds a more rooted, heartfelt tone, while G Whizz’s Go keeps the energy moving with a sharper, chant-friendly cut.

Blade Skeemaz’s Pass And Gone and Gramma Zone’s Fall In Love round out the juggling with voices that help fill out the project’s range without breaking its mood. There’s no overload here, just a tight dancehall package where the beat stays elastic and the artists play against it in different ways. What makes Devotion memorable is how neatly it captures that early-2010s Notnice sound: sleek, melodic, and built for repeated pulls in the dance.
