Hot Hot Riddim – Irie Negril 1996

Hot Hot Overview

In 1996, three artists made a big impact on the dancehall scene with a powerful bashment project. Daddy V, Gringo, and Mr Peck each brought their own style to the Hot Hot Riddim, making it a favorite for many fans that year. Daddy V, known for his track "How Long," was already respected in dancehall circles. His performance on this riddim showed his strong voice and energy. Gringo, who delivered the song "Hot Hot Hot," also stood out. Gringo was part of the German dancehall group Seeed, which helped bring dancehall music to a wider audience in Europe. Mr Peck’s contribution, "Nuff Gal," added another layer to the riddim, with catchy lyrics and a confident delivery. The selector’s choice for this project brought these three artists together over hypnotic beats and a classic dancehall rhythm. This combination gave the riddim a timeless island vibe that selectors loved to play in their sets during 1996. The songs worked well together, creating a lively mood on the dancefloor. Though the producer behind the Hot Hot Riddim is not widely documented, the riddim’s impact was clear. It became a staple in dancehall parties, and the tracks by Daddy V, Gringo, and Mr Peck are still remembered by fans of that era.
