Mudd Up Overview

When the Mudd Up Riddim dropped in 2000, it quickly became a top pick for selectors in Jamaica’s sound system culture. This release from I and I FOUNDATION RECORDS was built for the dance, with a steady, catchy beat that made crowds move. Sound systems across the island used the riddim to boost their sets, and it soon became a favorite at street dances. I and I FOUNDATION RECORDS is known for pushing the dancehall sound forward. They have a history of working with some of the genre’s most exciting artists and have helped bring several riddims to wide attention. The mixing board king behind the label gave the Mudd Up Riddim its crisp, lively sound, letting each artist shine. Merciless delivered “Gi Mi De Days,” bringing his signature energy. Mr Lexx, who later scored a major hit with “Cook,” added “Let It Go.” Mr Vegas, famous for his international success with “Heads High,” powered through with “Some Boy Chat.” Delly Ranks, under the Mudd Up name, gave fans “Hand Inna The Air.” The compilation also featured strong tracks like “Never Bow” by Unknown, “P. Pum” by Baby Wayne, and “Unleash The Thug” by Future Troubl. General B’s “Nuh Chi Chi Man,” Guyanese’s “Nah Bate Mi Up,” and Harry Toddler’s “Warning” rounded out the collection. With selectors spinning these tunes, the Mudd Up Riddim helped define the sound of dancehall at the turn of the millennium.
