Keep Dem Riddim – Various Artists

KEEP DEM RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2010

In 2010, the dancehall scene was buzzing with the arrival of a new riddim, built by a beat maker known for mixing gritty beats with smooth dancehall flow. The project was brought to life by producer VARIOUS ARTISTS, a name with a strong history in the dancehall world. VARIOUS ARTISTS had already worked on several popular compilations and was respected for bringing together fresh voices and established talent under one label. The journey began in a small Kingston studio, where the beat maker laid down the foundation—a driving rhythm with a raw edge. VARIOUS ARTISTS invited a select group of singers and deejays to voice on the riddim. Each artist brought their own style, creating a set that felt both unified and dynamic. Lucky stepped up with "Wine Nonstop, " a track that quickly caught the attention of DJs and dancehall fans. Sassy Bling delivered "So Blessed, " building on her reputation for uplifting lyrics and catchy hooks. Shenko teamed up with Alabaska for "Arrest Me Feat. Alabaska, " their collaboration standing out for its playful energy. Wendy added her unique touch with "Like That, " rounding out the set. When the riddim dropped, sound systems across Jamaica and beyond picked it up. The songs became staples at parties, helping to shape the sound of dancehall in 2010. The set remains a favorite for its infectious grooves and strong performances.
