In 1995, dancehall music in Jamaica was full of energy and new sounds. That year, a special yard beat called the Germs Riddim came out. This riddim was produced by P. Dalhouse and Alachman for COOL BACKRA., a label known for bringing fresh dancehall tracks to the scene. The Germs Riddim showed what was popular in dancehall at the time. The beat had a bouncy, catchy style that made people want to dance. Two artists who stood out on this riddim were Alley Cat and Corrupt. Alley Cat performed the song "Mr. Chin" on the Germs Riddim. He is well known in dancehall for his hit song "Hot Gal," which helped him gain fame in the late 1990s. His style is easy to recognize, with sharp lyrics and a smooth flow.

Both artists matched the lively feeling of the Germs Riddim with their strong performances. P. Dalhouse and Alachman, the producers, helped push dancehall forward with this release.
