Kak Up Riddim – Big Yard

Kak Up Riddim – 1999 – Big Yard

Big Yard’s Kak Up Riddim, from 1999, lines up a strong dancehall cast with Shaggy, Spragga Benz, Brian and Tony Gold, Chico, Rayvon, Red Fox, Danny English, and Tanto Metro and Devonte all taking turns over the same bounce. “Model Ya Mi Gal” and “Move And Gweh” bring the energy up fast, while “Piece Of The Pie” and “Do You Wanna Ride” add a smoother crossover touch. The set has that late-’90s Big Yard polish, balancing rude-boy attitude with catchy hooks and radio-friendly melodies, and it also shows how Shaggy’s camp could pull together voices from different corners of dancehall without losing the groove.
