Ho Ho Overview
The Ho Ho Riddim was released in 1996 by FEEL THE BEAT, a label known for pushing fresh dancehall sounds into the spotlight. This riddim quickly became a selector’s favorite, with DJs spinning the compilation at every dance. The label’s focus on modern bashment made the riddim stand out in a busy year for dancehall music. The standout track “Ho Ho” by Doniki & Steady Ranks brought real energy to the dancefloor. Doniki is also known for his work on the track “Living in the Ghetto,” a song that helped build his reputation in the reggae scene. Steady Ranks, with his signature voice, gave the track extra flavor, making it a must-play for fans of the era. Powerman’s “Ratings” is another highlight from the compilation.

The bashment arranger behind the project gave the riddim a fresh, modern twist, while FEEL THE BEAT’s careful production helped the compilation gain wide attention. Even today, the Ho Ho Riddim brings back memories of 1996, when its tracks kept the dancehall moving all night.
