GIVE PRAISES RIDDIM produced by FRESH EAR PRODUCTIONS 2016
Give Praises Overview
In 2016, the Give Praises Riddim brought a classic reggae sound back to the dance. The riddim’s one drop base is a deep, steady beat that echoes through reggae history. This style is important in sound system culture, where big speakers play music for crowds. The one drop rhythm, with its heavy bass and sharp snare, gives DJs and selectors a strong foundation to move the crowd. It lets singers and deejays ride the beat with their own style, which is key for live sessions. Fresh Ear Productions is the team behind this riddim. The producer, Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor, leads the label. He is known for shaping modern reggae and dancehall, and has worked with many top artists. Fresh Ear Productions has a history of making both hits and deep cuts that sound systems love. Their work on the Give Praises Riddim shows their skill at blending old-school roots with modern polish. Wayne Marshall is one of the artists on this project. He is known for his hit “Glory to God” and for working with Damian Marley on the song “Go Hard.” On the Give Praises Riddim, Wayne Marshall brings the song “Give Praises,” adding smooth vocals over the steady beat. D Major also joins with “Love Connection,” showing his talent for heartfelt reggae singing. Fresh Ear Productions themselves add “Give Praises Riddim (Electric Solo),” letting the music stand alone. This roots collection is still linked to reggae’s strong year in 2016.
