It Nuh Work Suh Riddim – Affluent Records 2009
It Nuh Work Suh Overview
The It Nuh Work Suh Riddim stands out as a powerful moment in 2009 dancehall, especially for fans of sound system culture. Built for heavy speakers and lively crowds, this riddim delivered the raw energy that selectors and partygoers wanted. The bashment arranger played a key role, shaping the tracks with a driving rhythm and sharp edits, making sure each tune hit hard in a dance. The production comes from a studio known for its yard-style creativity, a place where beats are crafted to move people on the dancefloor. In 2009, this mix showed just how strong Jamaican studios could be, bringing together artists with different styles on one riddim. Vybz Kartel’s "On An On" brings his signature flow and clever wordplay, a reminder of why he’s one of dancehall’s biggest names. Kartel’s career includes major hits like "Clarks" and "Fever," and his presence on this riddim adds star power. Black Ryno follows with "My Mamma," sharing his own story over the same beat. Ryno is known for his time with the Portmore Empire crew and for songs that connect with the streets. Popcaan’s "It Nuh Work Suh" adds a fresh voice. Popcaan later gained international fame with tracks like "Only Man She Want" and collaborations with Drake. Other artists on the riddim include Cp Inc with "Y Yuh Neva Listen" and Dosa Medicine with "My Goals," each bringing their own flavor. Together, these tracks show the strength of collaboration and the lasting sound of 2009 dancehall.
