GRADUATION IN ZION RIDDIM 2007
Graduation IN Zion Overview
The sound of the Graduation IN Zion Riddim comes from the creative mind of Roberto Sanchez. Sanchez is known for his deep respect for roots reggae and dub, and he has worked with many respected artists in the genre. On this release, he not only built the riddim but also contributed his own song, Blind Souls, showing his skill as both producer and musician. The riddim brought together strong voices from the reggae world in 2007. Capleton, famous for his energetic performances and his hit song Jah Jah City, takes a different approach on Shoot First Ask Question Later. His delivery is calm but powerful, fitting the mood of the riddim. Gyptian, who would later become known worldwide for his song Hold You, appears here with Watch What Your Doing, adding his smooth and soulful voice to the mix. Kiddus I, best known for his classic Graduation In Zion from the Rockers soundtrack, brings a new version of this song to the riddim. Nano Bravo adds a unique touch with Ojos De Leon, giving the project international flavor. Phillip Fraser and Thriller join together for Woman A Di Yard, blending their voices in a strong roots style. This recording was a favorite in reggae sets during 2007, bringing both new and classic voices together over a warm, rootsy sound.
