JUNO RIDDIM produced by JOHN JOHN RECORDS 2007
Juno Overview
If you were at a dancehall street dance in 2007, there’s a good chance you heard the Juno Riddim shaking the speakers. This riddim was built for sound system culture, with heavy bass and sharp snares that made it a favorite for selectors. The energy and rhythm were perfect for the street—giving dancers and deejays a solid base to show their skills. The mastermind behind the Juno Riddim is JOHN JOHN RECORDS, a label run by John John, son of the legendary King Jammy. John John is known for pushing dancehall forward, producing hits like "One Blood" and working with top artists in the scene. His label helped shape the sound of modern dancehall, and the Juno Riddim is a strong example of his influence. On this riddim, some of dancehall’s key voices came together. Busy Signal delivered "Real Hot Head," showing the style that would make him famous for songs like "Step Out" later in his career. Flexx, known from T.O.K., brought the raw "Pum Pum A Nuh Vegatable." Isses added "Uncle Sam," while Leftside And Esco gave fans "You See It," and Looga Man dropped "Ahead A Dem." Wayne Marshall and Tornado teamed up for "40 Strong." Each artist brought something unique, making the Juno Riddim a true street anthem and a lasting part of dancehall history.
