Mad Rave Overview

When dancehall fans look back at 2008, the bashment release on the Mad Rave Riddim is still a favorite topic. The club-ready sound and gritty groove of this riddim made it stand out, and listeners quickly embraced the energy on the dancefloor. Fans appreciated how each artist brought their own style to the project, making every track memorable. Fambo contributed with “Mad Rave,” adding his distinctive voice and party-driven lyrics. Fambo is known for his vibrant delivery in dancehall music, and this song fit right into his energetic catalog. Vybz Kartel delivered two tracks: “Wine Yuh Body” and “Wine Your Body.” At that time, Vybz Kartel was already well-known for hits like “Clarks,” which would later become one of his biggest songs in 2010. His performances on both Mad Rave Riddim tracks showed why he was a leading force in dancehall. Wayne Marshall And Esco teamed up for “Off Dem Feet.” Wayne Marshall had already built his reputation with collaborations such as the hit single "Overcome" with Bounty Killer in 2004, while Esco was recognized as part of Leftside & Esco, who produced various popular riddims. Elephant Man added his high-energy vibes with “Tlc.” He was famous for songs like “Pon De River Pon De Bank,” which won him international recognition earlier in his career. The studio hand behind the release was OPEN EAR MUSIC, a label known for releasing several influential dancehall riddims through the 2000s. They became recognized for quality production and working with major artists across Jamaica.
