First Class Overview

Reggae fans, the First Class Riddim selector’s mix was a big moment for dancehall in 2012. As soon as it dropped, DJs started spinning it at parties and on the radio. The riddim blends the classic bounce of dancehall with touches of modern bashment and even hints of R&B and pop, making it easy to mix with other genres. This fresh sound helped it fit into many DJ sets, keeping crowds moving. The artists on this riddim each brought their own style. Jahmiel’s “Knocking At Your Door” stands out with his clear voice and emotional delivery. Jahmiel is well known for his hit “Gain the World,” and his growing career has made him a respected name in reggae and dancehall. D’Yani’s “Only For You” adds smooth melodies, showing why he’s gaining attention for his vocal range. J Capri’s “Number One” brings energy—fans remember her for “Whine & Kotch,” a major hit with Charly Black that made international charts before her untimely passing. Pencil’s “Dream” and Kevy B’s “Play It Off” both add unique flavors, each artist using the riddim in their own way. The mix also features Tamo J’s “First Class Life,” De’Vious with “Highgrade,” Blemz’s “A We Seh,” Kim Nain’s “Give Me Your Love,” and Runkus with “Jah Jah,” giving the riddim even more variety. Behind it all is Kevstar Records, a label known for supporting fresh dancehall talent. In 2012, Kevstar Records proved that Jamaican studios could still create top-quality riddims that compete worldwide. This selector’s mix is proof that yard studios were, and still are, at the heart of dancehall’s evolution.
