I’m Not Getting Crazy Riddim – Fat Eyes Records
Im Not Getting Crazy Overview
The rocksteady flow is remembered today for its smooth, soulful sound that helped bridge classic reggae with newer styles. This special groove from the late 1960s still inspires many modern reggae and dancehall artists. In 1998, a riddim called "I'm Not Getting Crazy" brought this rocksteady feeling back into the spotlight, connecting the old and new generations. On this riddim, Capleton & Yami Bolo joined forces for "Hotness." Both artists are respected for their spiritual messages and strong voices. Capleton, known as the "Fireman," has been a major figure in reggae and dancehall since the 1990s, with hits like “Tour” and “Jah Jah City.” Yami Bolo is known for his roots reggae style and collaborations, such as his work with Damian Marley. Anthony B brought even more energy with "Fire Come Now." He is famous for songs like “Raid the Barn” and his album “Universal Struggle,” which helped him gain international recognition. Singing Melody added a softer touch with "Crazy Love." He is known for his smooth vocals and won the Jamaica Reggae Industry Association (JaRIA) award for Best Male Vocalist in 2012. Terror Fabulous, known for his dancehall classics, delivered "Ready." He made a big mark in the 1990s with hits like “Action,” a duet with Nadine Sutherland. The roots selector behind this riddim helped shape its spiritual and relaxed mood. The 1998 release of "I'm Not Getting Crazy" is still remembered for its deep roots drop, making it one of the cultural highlights of that year. The riddim remains a strong example of how reggae’s past continues to influence its future.
