Gideon Overview
The dub version of the Gideon Riddim stands out for its deep roots feel and steady, rolling bassline. Echoes and reverb wash over the drums and keys, creating a spacey atmosphere that invites listeners to relax or reflect. The rhythm has a classic reggae heartbeat, but the mixing brings a modern edge, with swirling effects that highlight each instrument. This dub cut moves smoothly, keeping a steady groove from start to finish, and its uplifting vibe makes it memorable among 2022 releases. Several respected artists voiced the Gideon Riddim, each bringing their own style. Lutan Fyah delivers “Live Up” with his signature conscious lyrics and melodic flow. Lutan Fyah is well known for his hit “St. Jago De La Vega” and has collaborated with reggae legends like Sizzla. Amejah and Tafari Wisdom join forces on “Gideon Soldier,” blending harmonies and positive messages. 1 Dandada’s “Necessary” adds urgency to the riddim, while Turbulence’s “King in a Mi Palace” showcases the artist’s strong vocal presence—Turbulence gained international recognition with “Notorious,” a song that topped charts in several countries. Great 1’s “The Word” rounds out the set with thoughtful lyrics and a steady delivery. Behind the scenes, BLAK KARPET PRODUCTIONS continues to build its reputation as a roots reggae foundation.
