GAME TIME RIDDIM produced by CHALWA RECORDS 2005
Game Time Overview
In 2005, the dancehall scene was buzzing with energy, and one release that stood out was the "Game Time Riddim." Produced by CHALWA RECORDS, this riddim quickly became a favorite at bashment sessions. Known for their knack for crafting club bangers, CHALWA RECORDS had already made a name for themselves in the dancehall community with their innovative sounds. The "Game Time Riddim" featured an impressive lineup of artists. Busy Signal, a prominent figure in dancehall, contributed with "Brighter Day," showcasing his lyrical prowess. Busy Signal was already known for hits like "Step Out," which cemented his place in the genre. Elephant Man, another dancehall heavyweight, brought his high-energy style to the track "Stewart Little." Known as the "Energy God," Elephant Man had previously rocked the charts with songs like "Pon De River, Pon De Bank." Isis added her unique flair with "Ya Star," while Kid Kurupt delivered "When You See Me," both tracks adding depth to the riddim’s diverse sound. Kris Kelly’s "Baby Come To Me" offered a smooth vibe, complementing the riddim's dynamic nature. Looga Man's "Feel Good," Ward 21's "Master Bait," and Wayne Marshall's "Straight High Grades" rounded out the mix, each bringing their distinct style. The instrumental "Game Time Riddim" version itself was a testament to the producer's skill in creating a beat that could stand on its own. Years later, selectors still reach for this unforgettable 2005 mix, proving its lasting impact on the dancehall landscape.
