INDEPENDENCE RIDDIM 2017
Independence Overview
The Independence Riddim made a big impact in 2017 with its strong street anthem sound. The base of the riddim was perfect for the dance floor, giving every track a powerful energy. This foundation also mixed well with other genres, like hip hop and Afrobeat, making it popular in clubs and parties. Artists like 9x Knowledge brought their own style to the riddim. His song "Some Friend" stood out with clever lyrics and a catchy flow. Amacon added more flavor with "Drive It Around," showing his smooth delivery. Barry Blakks, known for his energetic stage presence, delivered "This Mi Like." Eklypse, with his track "Up Eno," kept the vibe fresh. Furiios, who has worked with several top producers in the dancehall scene, gave us "Life Weh We Live," a song that quickly became a favorite among fans. The riddim’s architect made sure every beat and melody supported the artists. The production quality helped each song shine, with the melodic progression keeping listeners interested from start to finish. The yard session tape became a highlight, capturing the raw and real spirit of bashment at the time. Overall, the Independence Riddim brought together different styles and voices, creating something special for both the streets and the dance floor. The blend of genres and strong artist performances made it a lasting favorite.
