HOPEFUL RIDDIM produced by BRIGHTA DAYS MUSIC 2007
Hopeful Overview
In 2007, reggae fans were treated to a roots revival with the release of Hopeful Riddim. The journey began in the studio, where skilled musicians crafted a deep, bass-driven track base. The riddim’s foundation was built on classic reggae elements, but it was shaped for a new era, giving it a fresh energy. Behind the scenes, the producer known as BRIGHTA DAYS MUSIC played a key role. Known for supporting uplifting reggae sounds, BRIGHTA DAYS MUSIC had already made a mark with several conscious releases on their label. Their approach brought out the best in both the riddim and the artists, helping the set stand out in 2007’s crowded reggae scene. The artists who voiced this riddim each brought their own spirit. Brahim delivered “Le Vice Of L'ego,” adding his signature French reggae flavor. Jah Mali, celebrated for his album “El Shaddai,” sang “Whole Heap A Time,” bringing soulful vocals and positive lyrics. Jah Mason, known for the hit “Princess Gone,” uplifted listeners with “We Will Be Rising.” Norrisman contributed “Rasta Glory,” while Turbulence—famous for his chart-topping single “Notorious”—added “Never Knew.” The set was completed by the instrumental “Hopeful Riddim” version. Together, these tracks carried the roots reggae torch, making Hopeful Riddim a standout in 2007 and a favorite for both radio and sound system selectors.
