    DISEASES RIDDIM produced by GREENSLEEVES RECORDS 1982

    Diseases Overview

    The one drop base is a famous reggae rhythm that started in Jamaica in the 1970s. It is easy to recognize because the drum hits on the third beat. This style is still popular today and is used by many reggae artists. On the Diseases Riddim, several well-known artists return with new energy. Cocoa Tea performs "I've Lost My Sonia." Cocoa Tea is famous for his smooth voice and classic songs like "Rikers Island." Josey Wales brings his song "Let Go Mi Hand." He is known as a dancehall pioneer from the 1980s. Nicodemus sings "Boneman Connection." Papa Michigan and General Smiley appear with "Diseases." Their song "Diseases" was a big hit in the early 1980s and helped shape dancehall music. Shaggy adds "All Virgins." Shaggy is one of reggae’s most successful stars, winning a Grammy Award for his album "Boombastic" and reaching international charts with "It Wasn't Me." The dub engineer on this release helps create the deep, echoing sound that makes reggae special. The producer, GREENSLEEVES RECORDS, is a major label in reggae music. Founded in 1975, Greensleeves has released many classic albums and helped reggae reach fans around the world. The one drop base in this riddim keeps reggae’s roots alive and shows why this style is still loved in today’s music.
