Forever Riddim (2019) – Mr G Music

Mr G Music’s Forever Riddim lands in that sweet spot where modern roots-reggae polish meets easy, radio-friendly songwriting. Released in 2019, it pairs a simple, melodic foundation with three vocal cuts: Christopher Martin and Romain Virgo on “Try My Love, ” Falkon on “Forever Girl, ” and Nigma on “Thanks (Mama). The setup is lean, but the voices give it range, moving from romance to gratitude without losing the warm, lovers-rock mood.

Mr G Music is the production banner of Chad Simpson, better known as Mr. G and formerly Goofy, a name tied to Jamaican music for years before this more producer-driven chapter. That background matters here, because the riddim has the clean, unforced feel of someone who understands both melody and dancehall timing. The groove sits in a mid-tempo pocket, with a soft bounce, restrained drums, and enough space for the singers to stretch out their hooks.

Christopher Martin, from St. Catherine, has long been one of reggae and dancehall’s most dependable smooth-voiced crooners, while Romain Virgo, the Stepney, St. Ann singer who came up through Rising Stars, is a natural fit for this kind of lover’s selection. Their duet is the anchor cut, and it works because both singers know how to keep a love song direct without overworking it. Falkon’s “Forever Girl” brings a more intimate, earnest tone, while Nigma’s “Thanks (Mama)” adds a family-minded lift that broadens the riddim’s emotional range.
