Kancer Riddim – 1999 – Blend Them Production
Kancer Overview
In 1999, dancehall music was moving fast, with new sounds filling clubs and parties across Jamaica. The Kancer Riddim was one of the pure dancehall sets that year, echoing through the island’s sound systems and keeping the energy high. The riddim’s architect built a strong, modern beat that blended party vibes with a sharp edge. This foundation let each artist shine, while keeping the set tight and memorable. The production’s mix of classic dancehall and new influences helped it stand out in a year crowded with big releases. Anthony B’s “Give Me Sum More” brought his powerful style to the riddim. Known for his energetic performances and conscious lyrics, Anthony B had already made a name for himself with hits like “Fire Pon Rome.” His presence gave the set extra weight. Baby Wayne’s “Low Me Gwaan” added a raw, streetwise voice. Baby Wayne was respected for his gritty delivery and real-life stories, making his track a highlight for many fans. Currant Man’s “Rasta Nah Bow” kept the roots message alive, showing the riddim could carry both party and culture. The set also featured Everton Blender on two tracks, “Kanta” and “Watch It.” Everton Blender was well-known for his uplifting songs and had won the 1997 Caribbean Music Expo Award for Best Male Vocalist. Isha Blender’s “Bad Boys” brought a unique touch, adding another layer to the set’s variety. Each artist used the riddim in their own way, but together, they helped make Kancer Riddim a true snapshot of 1999 dancehall.
