Ice Age Overview

Selectors across Jamaica made a strong choice in 2010 by playing the Ice Age Riddim compilation at parties and dancehall sessions. The project brought together a fresh set of tracks from artists who each added their own style. The riddim was produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS, a team known for shaping many dancehall hits in the 2000s and 2010s. Their productions often reached wide audiences, and Ice Age Riddim was no exception, quickly becoming a favorite in party circles. 3 Suns, who had already gained attention with earlier tracks like “Ghetto Youths,” delivered “What Them Gul Want.” This track stood out for its catchy hook and lively delivery, making it a regular request. Bongo Dred, another respected name in the scene, contributed “Who Da,” a song that kept the energy high and the crowd moving. Cableous joined the lineup with “Check,” adding a playful twist to the compilation. Slammer Cutter’s “Back It Up” rounded out the release, bringing a dancefloor-ready vibe that selectors loved to spin late into the night. The combination of these four artists and their songs created a compilation that captured the party spirit of 2010. Thanks to VARIOUS ARTISTS’ production, the Ice Age Riddim remains a memorable part of dancehall’s history from that year.
