FREE STYLE RIDDIM produced by SCARE DEM MUZIC 1998
Free Style Overview
In 1998, the yard beat brought a raw street flavor to dancehall music. The Free Style Riddim, produced by SCARE DEM MUZIC, is a strong example of this sound. SCARE DEM MUZIC was known for creating energetic riddims that selectors loved to play in dancehall sessions. Their productions helped keep dancehall music fresh and exciting during the late 1990s. The yard beat in this riddim blends well with other genres. It uses smooth, steady drum patterns and basslines that fit easily with reggae and hip hop influences. This mix allows artists to bring their own style while still keeping the dancehall energy alive. Bobby Krystal shines on the track "Cupid," bringing a melodic touch to the riddim. Boom Dandimite & Little Robert deliver "Gun Dar," adding a streetwise attitude that matches the beat’s rawness. Bounty Killer & Elephant Man, both big names in dancehall, team up for "One Way Trip." Bounty Killer is famous for hits like "Look," and Elephant Man is known for his energetic stage presence and songs like "Pon De River, Pon De Bank." Their collaboration on this riddim shows their powerful chemistry. Chuck Fender’s "Big Bad Bentley" brings a roots vibe, while Harry Toddler’s "Gun Galore" keeps the party moving. Mr Vegas, with his song "Agony," adds his unique vocal style. Pinchers, known for classics like "Bandelero," delivers "One Man Alone," showing his smooth delivery. Looking back, the yard beat and SCARE DEM MUZIC’s vision helped keep dancehall alive in 1998.
