FULL ATTENTION RIDDIM produced by JOE FRASIER RECORDS 2007
Full Attention Overview
In 2007, reggae fans enjoyed a roots project called the Full Attention Riddim. This riddim was made by JOE FRASIER RECORDS, a label known for smooth, soulful reggae since the 1990s. JOE FRASIER RECORDS has worked with many top artists and is respected for keeping the classic reggae sound alive. The Full Attention Riddim stands out for its rocksteady flow. Unlike some roots projects from the same time that used digital beats or heavy dancehall sounds, this riddim keeps a gentle, steady rhythm. The arranger made sure each song fits together, giving a warm, classic island feeling. Many strong artists voiced this riddim. Kashief Lindo sings “Personal Physician.” Lindo is well known for his soulful voice and has released several albums with JOE FRASIER RECORDS. Maxi Priest brings his smooth style to “My Girl Dis.” Maxi Priest is famous for his hit “Close to You,” which reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1990. Roger Robin performs “Love Can Take You Higher,” and Sadiki gives us “Perfect Love.” Mikey Spice, remembered for his cover of “Practice What You Preach,” sings “Taste & See.” Other artists on the riddim include Pam Hall with “Hold It Down,” Lloyd Brown’s “Another Lost Love Song,” Ed Robinson’s “Its Our Time,” Kwest’s “Never Be Quick to Judge,” and George Nooks’ “Lonely Days.” This project was a favorite at reggae events in 2007, showing the lasting power of rocksteady roots music.
