Get Busy Riddim – World Voice

GET BUSY RIDDIM produced by WORLD VOICE 1999

Get Busy Overview

When the Get Busy Riddim dropped in 1999, reggae and dancehall fans couldn’t get enough. DJs played it at every party, and the energy was hard to match. The riddim had a sound that pulled everyone to the dancefloor and quickly became a favorite across Jamaica and beyond. Beenie Man’s “Retreat” was a big highlight. By this time, Beenie Man was already known for hits like “Who Am I (Sim Simma)” and had won a MOBO Award for Best International Reggae Act in 1998. His style on “Retreat” fit the riddim perfectly, showing why he was called the “King of Dancehall.” Future Trouble added his own fire with “Heartlesst,” bringing his unique voice and flow. The track “Get Busy Riddim” by Version kept the vibe going strong, letting the beat shine on its own. The mastermind behind this release was producer WORLD VOICE. WORLD VOICE had a reputation for crafting dancehall beats that worked well in both the streets and on radio. The release came out on the World Voice label, which was known for pushing new sounds into the scene. Looking back, Get Busy Riddim really captured what yard music was all about in the late ‘90s—raw energy, catchy rhythms, and artists at the top of their game. If you love dancehall, this riddim is a must-listen.
