The Locust Riddim brought together some strong names in dancehall back in 2011. Gallowas gave fans the catchy “Blackberry Gallis,” while General B, known for his work with Monster Shack Crew and the hit “Go Fi Dem,” delivered “Hate Me Or Love Me.” Ghandi’s “Greedy Dem A Play” added his unique energy. Gyptian, who is famous worldwide for the song “Hold You,” came with “Nuh Stress Mi.” Johnny P, a veteran deejay, gave us “Nuh Don Fi Me.” Each artist brought their own style and made the riddim stand out.
