ONE DROP RIDDIM produced by ROCKERS MIX x DR ZED
One Drop Overview
In 2013, the roots reggae scene welcomed a fresh anthology that gave new voices a stage: the One Drop Riddim project. This collection stood out in reggae playlists that year, offering a smooth and percussion-driven sound. While other roots anthologies of the time often featured heavy basslines or digital effects, this one focused on warm grooves and a calm, island feeling. Artists like Benny B brought energy to the project with his track "Musha Waparara." Benny B is known in the reggae world for his catchy hooks and has performed at major festivals in Africa. Braindan’s "Kwandiri Kuenda" added another layer, showing his talent for heartfelt lyrics. Heavy Gun’s "Caan Tek No More" gave listeners a powerful message over the riddim’s steady beat. J Stylez delivered "Mahypocrites," reflecting on social issues, while Layaaness Mimi’s "Mira Neni" brought a romantic vibe. Each artist used the One Drop Riddim as a canvas for their unique style. The producer duo ROCKERS MIX x DR ZED played a big role in the project’s success. ROCKERS MIX is respected for his work with various reggae acts and has helped shape the sound of modern roots reggae. Their vision and studio skills gave the anthology its signature feel, making it a standout among 2013’s roots releases.
