Hennessy Overview
The Hennessy Riddim made a strong impact on dancehall in 2001 with a lineup of energetic tracks. The release features songs that quickly became favorites in dancehall sessions. Key tracks include Bling Dawg — Aint No Bait, Bunpan Oniel Delly Ranks — Gimmi Some More, Beenie Man — Yuh Nuh Salt, Beenie Man — Trendsetter, Capleton — Burning Now, and Elephant Man — Bottle Field. Other notable tracks are Lazer B — Step In A You Forehead, Luckie D and Red Foxx — Up And Down, Mega B — Back Down, and Tanto Metro Devonte — Mouth Murderer. Each artist brought their own style to the riddim. Bling Dawg, known for his deep voice and street lyrics, gives a raw edge on Aint No Bait. Bunpan Oniel Delly Ranks adds energy with Gimmi Some More. Beenie Man, who won a Grammy Award for his album "Art & Life" in 2001, delivers two songs: Yuh Nuh Salt and Trendsetter, both showing his versatility and flow. Capleton, often called "The Fireman" for his fiery lyrics, brings heat with Burning Now. Elephant Man, famous for his high-energy performances and hits like "Pon De River Pon De Bank," keeps the party vibe strong on Bottle Field. The riddim’s beat comes from PURE MUSIC PRODUCTION, a label known for shaping the sound of early 2000s dancehall. PURE MUSIC PRODUCTION has worked with many top Jamaican artists and helped launch several successful riddims during that era. The Hennessy Riddim’s uptempo beat and street flavor made it a club favorite.
