Og Kush Overview

The dub cut of the Og Kush Riddim brings a fresh, energetic vibe to reggae in 2011. The rhythm is smooth but full of drive, with sharp drum patterns and deep bass lines. It’s a sound that invites both relaxation and movement, capturing the spirit of roots reggae while keeping things modern. The instrumental arrangement lets each artist shine in their own way. Ishi Dube & Demarco team up on “Gangsta,” blending Ishi Dube’s roots style with Demarco’s dancehall edge. Demarco is well known for his hit single “Fallen Soldiers,” which earned him recognition in Jamaica and beyond. Jah Dan Blakkamore’s “Altitude” stands out with its conscious lyrics and melodic flow. Jah Dan has also worked with Major Lazer, showing his reach across genres. Jah Sun & J Boog come together on “No Time To Play,” mixing uplifting vocals with a catchy hook. J Boog is respected for his album “Backyard Boogie,” which topped Billboard’s Reggae Albums chart. Messenjah Selah’s “Outta Di Ghetto” and Mykal Somer’s “Teach Di Youths” both deliver strong messages, keeping the cultural focus alive. Behind the scenes, NORTHSTAR PRODUCTIONS arranged and produced the riddim. Known for their dedication to roots reggae, the label has built a reputation for quality releases and cultural impact.
