GLOBAL EFFECT RIDDIM produced by GOING GLOBAL RECORDS 2021
Global Effect Overview
In 2021, the yard beat was a powerful force in dancehall. It gave the music its raw energy and made fans want to move. The Global Effect Riddim is a strong example of how this beat can blend with other genres. The riddim uses classic dancehall rhythms but adds new sounds from hip hop and Afrobeat. This mix keeps the music fresh, while still feeling true to its roots. Artists like Kalonji, Malie Donn, and Tafari each brought their own style to the Global Effect Riddim. Kalonji’s track, "Life We Choose," stands out for its catchy flow. Malie Donn, who is known for his unique delivery, brings sharp lyrics on "Run Out." Tafari adds a thoughtful touch with "Life Over Everything." Each song shows how artists can use the yard beat to express different moods and ideas. Toppy Boss, Stewie Boss, and Wacko Dan also played key roles. Stewie Boss’s "Hard Man Ah Try" and Wacko Dan’s "Six Life" both use the riddim’s energy to create memorable tracks. Young Star 6ixx joins with "Careful," adding even more variety to the project. The producer, GOING GLOBAL RECORDS, is known for pushing dancehall forward. The label has worked with many rising and established artists, and has built a strong reputation for quality releases. Their work on the Global Effect Riddim helped make the yard beat a central part of dancehall in 2021. The blend of tradition and new ideas made the riddim a touchstone for the genre that year.
