GOOD THINGS RIDDIM produced by KIRKLEDOVE RECORDS 2012
Good Things Overview
The Good Things Riddim arrived in 2012 and quickly made its mark on the dancehall scene. This riddim brought a raw street flavor to dancehall sessions, giving the genre a fresh and energetic boost. It stood out among other mixes of its time, which often leaned towards electronic sounds or pop influences. Instead, Good Things Riddim kept its focus on classic dancehall vibes, with a heavy bassline and catchy drum patterns. Busy Signal’s “Fire Ball” rides the riddim with his signature energy, bringing a powerful performance that fits perfectly with the tough beat. Cocoa Tea’s “Good Things” adds a smoother, rootsy feel, showing the riddim’s flexibility. Jack Radics, teaming up with Stevie Face on “Paper Soldier,” brings a melodic touch, while Lutan Fyah’s “Too Much Nine Night” delivers conscious lyrics on top of the driving rhythm. Red Rose’s “Nothing Come Easy” keeps the mood real and streetwise. Other strong tracks on the riddim include Richie Stephenson’s “Can’t Keep A Good Man Down,” Romain Virgo’s “Think Mi Weak,” Steele’s “Hanging On,” and Tammy T’s “Love” featuring Klyve. Each artist brings their own style, but the riddim ties them all together with its steady groove. The producer, KIRKLEDOVE RECORDS, played a key role in creating this sound. Known for working with top dancehall names and building a reputation for quality riddims, they helped shape the modern dancehall landscape. Good Things Riddim remains an important part of dancehall history, remembered for its street energy and strong lineup of artists.
