Fresh out of Zimbabwe, we have Vibranium Riddim. Produced by Riddim World Records and Big League Music, the Riddim showcases dancehall coming straight out of Harare. With close ties to the Rastafarian and conscious community in JA, Zimbabwe has always looked to invite Jamaican dancehall and reggae artists to tour the country. Sizzla and Capleton sent shockwaves through the country in 2010 paving the way for other artists like Tarrus Riley, Elephant Man, Beenie Man, Busy Signal, Mr Vegas, Konshens, and Mavado who followed suit over the years.
Zimbabwe’s musical relationship with Jamaica began in 1979 when Bob Marley crowned Independence celebrations in the National Stadium. Bob Marley released a celebratory song titled Zimbabwe which became a liberation anthem, cementing a close relationship between the countries.
