Genie IN A Bottle Riddim – Ajang

Produced by Ajang in 1999, Genie In A Bottle Riddim is a tight little dancehall set with five cuts and an instrumental version, leaning on a late-’90s sound that was popular in the era. The lineup brings together Chukki Star on How Me So Real, Hotta Flex with Your Love, Madeline on the title-inspired Genie In A Bottle, and Sweetie Irie riding Thug Style. Sweetie Irie’s inclusion gives the rhythm extra weight, while Chukki Star was also active on another Ajang-linked tune that same year, showing how the production circle kept a consistent dancehall connection around Jermaine Forde’s camp.
