DIAMOND STONE RIDDIM produced by VERY HUGE RECORDS 2011
Diamond Stone Overview
In 2011, the foundation rhythm for the Diamond Stone Riddim came together inside a Kingston studio. The sound architect wanted to blend the classic reggae feeling with a fresh, modern touch. Every instrument was carefully chosen to reflect the spirit of that year’s reggae scene. The producer, VERY HUGE RECORDS, played a key role. Known for pushing reggae and dancehall forward, the label has a history of working with both new and established talent. Their releases have been featured on popular reggae platforms and playlists, helping to shape the sound of the decade. The artists brought their own energy to the project. Boom Roots delivered “Jah By We Side,” bringing heartfelt lyrics and a strong vocal presence. G Whizz, already known for the hit “Life,” added his smooth style with “Diamond Store.” Iq’s “Hard Time” stood out for its honest message, connecting with listeners facing daily struggles. Kibaki’s “My Time” showed his growth as an artist, while Kristopher’s “Pray For Them” offered a message of hope. Each artist used the foundation rhythm to share their story, adding vocal harmonies and personality. The Diamond Stone Riddim became part of 2011’s reggae legacy, capturing the sound of the time and giving fans something both familiar and new.
