Omg Overview
The Omg Riddim, released in 2011, brought a fresh, energetic style to dancehall. Its bass-heavy sound and lively tempo made it perfect for parties and street sessions. The riddim’s mood is bold and upbeat, with every beat designed to get people moving. This yard session tape quickly became a favorite for DJs and fans alike, shaping the sound of dancehall that year. Several top artists gave their own flavor to the riddim. Busy Signal delivered a catchy anthem with “Right Now,” showing his usual sharp delivery. Chuck Fenda’s “Me Babymother Friend” added a storytelling touch, while Coppa Cat’s “Since U Came In” brought a smooth, melodic vibe. Daville kept the energy high with “Dem Would A Love It,” and Duane Stephenson offered a heartfelt performance on “Saving The Best.” Each song fit the riddim’s mood but showed the unique style of each singer.
