Duffle Bag Riddim – Stainless Music 2010
Duffle Bag Overview
In 2010, a new sound began to take over dancehall parties across Jamaica. This was the Duffle Bag Riddim, a beat that brought together the energy of classic dancehall with a modern twist. The riddim was crafted in the studio by a tight team, with sound engineer Shane Brown playing a key role in shaping its crisp, uptempo feel. Brown, known for his sharp ear and technical skills, made sure every detail was right before the riddim left the mixing desk. Once the foundation was set, the artists stepped in. Busy Signal, already famous for hits like "Night Shift," added his unique style to the riddim with "Question." Da Professor came through with "The W.E.E.D - Edit," bringing a laid-back but commanding vibe. Duffle Bag, the artist who shares a name with the riddim, delivered his own version called "Dub," giving fans a different taste of the beat. The energy turned up with Elephant Man, who is known worldwide for party anthems like "Pon De River, Pon De Bank." On this riddim, he gave fans "Wine Up Yu Waist," a track made for the dancefloor. Lisa Hype, who made waves with her song "Bleaching Fit Me," added her bold voice to the mix. From creation in the studio to release, the Duffle Bag Riddim quickly became a favorite for selectors. Even years later, its party backdrop still echoes in clubs, proving the riddim's lasting power in dancehall culture.
