GIVE THANKS RIDDIM produced by HOMEGROUND RECORDS 2007
Give Thanks Overview
In 2007, the roots reggae scene welcomed a fresh drop with the arrival of the Give Thanks Riddim. This release quickly found its way into reggae playlists, bringing together a mix of artists and styles. The project was guided by HOMEGROUND RECORDS, a label known for supporting roots and conscious reggae in Europe. HOMEGROUND RECORDS has worked with a range of reggae artists, helping to keep the genre’s message strong and relevant. The Give Thanks Riddim featured several talented voices. Ben (Ohrbooten) delivered “Keine Macht Fuer Niemand,” showing the thoughtful lyrics he is known for. Benjie, who had already made his mark with “Oh Lord,” brought his unique style to the riddim. Black Dillinger contributed “Sinking Sand,” adding his roots energy. Conscious Fiyah’s “Follow Jah Love” continued the spiritual tradition of reggae, while Culcha Candela’s “Give Thanks” stood out; this group is known for their chart-topping hit “Hamma!” in Germany, and their blend of reggae, dancehall, and hip hop. Each artist added their own flavor, but the riddim kept a classic roots sound. HOMEGROUND RECORDS’ careful production made sure the island vibe stayed front and center. The Give Thanks Riddim showed that reggae’s timeless spirit could shine through modern voices, keeping the music’s positive message alive in 2007.
