In 2014, a roots reggae project arrived that helped young singers find their voice. Drinks Up Riddim, produced by CHINEY K MUSIC, brought together a group of rising and established artists, each adding their own style to a classic reggae rhythm. CHINEY K MUSIC, known for supporting cultural reggae and positive messages, made sure the project kept a strong roots feeling while staying fresh for new listeners.

Chiney K – Super Model – Super Model also brings a confident and catchy vibe to the collection. Iyara – Nah See The Worse A Mi delivers a powerful message about overcoming hard times, fitting well with the roots tradition of hope and resilience. Empress Tashai – This Lady offers a strong female perspective, adding depth and variety to the project. Danny English – Own Money gives the riddim a touch of dancehall energy while staying true to roots reggae spirit. Other artists, like Fido Wido - Enjoy Wi Self – Mac Ft. Fido Wido - Enjoy Wi Self, Hawkeye – Wine, Mr G – Fresh To Death, Junior Garrison – My First Lady, and Magma – Fyah Place, each bring their own flavor, making the anthology lively and diverse.
