GAME TIME RIDDIM produced by CHALWA 2006
Game Time Overview
In 2006, dancehall was full of energy, and the Game Time Riddim showed why. The riddim used a strong bashment flow, which is the lively and bold style that makes dancehall music stand out. This flow was not just about hard beats—it also mixed in sounds from other genres, creating a fresh and modern feeling. Elephant Man, known for his hit song "Pon De River, Pon De Bank," brought his high-energy style to the riddim with "Tickle Edited" and "Tickle Raw." His voice and delivery made these tracks perfect for the dance floor, matching the bashment rhythm with catchy phrases and playful energy. Ward 21, famous for their clever lyrics and group work, added their own twist with "Spank It Edited" and "Spank It Raw." The group is known for songs like "Haters" and their impact on the dancehall scene. Their sharp lyrics and unique flows gave the riddim a different edge, making it stand out from other releases at the time. Producer CHALWA played a key role in shaping the sound. CHALWA is known for blending dancehall with other styles, helping to keep the genre fresh. By combining classic bashment beats with modern touches, CHALWA made sure the Game Time Riddim would last. Together, these artists and the producer balanced sharp lyrics with strong dancehall grooves, showing how the bashment flow could blend with new ideas and sounds.
