Heavyload Overview
In 2012, dancehall was full of energy, and the Heavyload Riddim stood out. This selector’s mix brought together both rough deejay styles and smooth vocals, making it special compared to other mixes of the time. While many selector mixes focused only on hardcore or only on singing, this one gave listeners the best of both worlds. The mix opened with Kojilove’s "King Are Come," a track that showed off Kojilove’s powerful delivery. Gentle I followed with "Fight It," bringing a calm but strong voice. Bizzy Symptom’s "Pass Mi Di Faya" added more fire to the riddim. Bizzy Symptom is known for his energetic performances, and here he did not disappoint. Brown Sugar’s "Black & White" gave the mix a soulful touch. Brown Sugar is respected for bringing sweet melodies to dancehall. Micky D’s "Ndandiindandi" added another layer. Micky D has been part of several popular collaborations in the past, always bringing a fresh sound. Other tracks on the riddim included Fyah Starter with "Talk Dem Talk," Katsa B with "Heavyload," Slenda with "One Love," and Tin Tin with "Havandimise." Each artist brought their own flavor, making the mix feel complete. Behind the scenes, the studio hand played a big part, making sure each track sounded clean and heavy. The producer, BLACKSTARLINE, is known for working with both new and established artists, and has built a good name for quality dancehall production. This mix showed the power of yard studios in 2012. It was a true sample of what Jamaican music could do, blending voices and styles in a way that kept dancehall moving forward.
