NEXT GENERATION RIDDIM produced by CRAIGMATIC PRODUCTIONS 2022
Next Generation Overview
Today, the sound system cut from the Next Generation Riddim is remembered as one of the most exciting dancehall moments of 2022. DJs and fans still talk about how quickly it took over the dance floor, with its heavy bass and sharp energy making it a favorite at bashment parties. The selector’s mix, in particular, became a highlight for many dancehall events that year. The riddim brought together a strong lineup of artists, each adding their own style. Crimeson’s track, "Chrome," stood out for its bold delivery and catchy hook. IQ’s "Every Gal" became a crowd favorite, building on IQ’s reputation from earlier hits like "Body Language," which made waves in dancehall circles. LR’s "My 45" added a gritty edge, showing why LR is known for keeping dancehall raw and real. Supastar Izzy contributed "No Reversing," adding to his growing catalog after working with names like Teejay and Chronic Law. Marco Villain’s "Put Yah Hand On Me" brought another layer of energy, helping cement his status as a reliable voice on the scene. Other notable tracks included Holla Bak’s "Talk" and 10erson’s "Wrong Place," each helping to round out the project’s appeal. All of this was made possible by CRAIGMATIC PRODUCTIONS, the producer behind the riddim. Known for crafting modern dancehall sounds, CRAIGMATIC PRODUCTIONS has been active since the late 2010s and is respected for working with both rising and established artists. Their work on Next Generation Riddim showed a clear vision, blending classic dancehall vibes with a fresh, modern touch. The result was a bashment staple that still gets replayed today.
