FOOTPRINT RIDDIM produced by HIDEAPH PRODUCTIONS 2014
Footprint Overview
In 2014, the Footprint Riddim became a strong force in Jamaica’s dancehall scene. The production came from HIDEAPH PRODUCTIONS, a label known for shaping new sounds in dancehall. HIDEAPH PRODUCTIONS had already made a name with other popular riddims, and Footprint Riddim added to their reputation for energetic, street-ready music. This riddim blended classic dancehall with hints of hip hop and even a touch of soca, making it feel fresh and exciting. The basslines and drum patterns were pure bashment, but the rhythms and hooks brought in new flavors. This mix helped the riddim cross over to different crowds, both in Jamaica and abroad. Laden’s “Tek On Di Road” quickly became a favorite in dancehall parties. Laden, who is also known for his hit “Time To Shine,” brought a catchy, confident flow that matched the riddim’s energy. Oc’s “Top Personnel” gave the riddim a raw, streetwise edge, showing his skills as a lyricist. Axygen’s “Rave All Night” added a party vibe, perfect for the dance floor. Each artist played a key role in making the riddim a yard anthem. Their lyrics and delivery matched the riddim’s strong, bashment sound. Many fans say Footprint Riddim defined the dancehall energy of 2014, with its mix of gyal tunes and party anthems. The work of HIDEAPH PRODUCTIONS, along with these standout artists, made this riddim a lasting part of dancehall history.
