ONE MINUTE MAN – KILLA B 2001
One Minute Man – Killa B Overview
When the “One Minute Man” riddim dropped in 2001, selectors quickly made it a favorite in bashment parties. The mix’s energy came from its unique blend of classic dancehall with fresh sounds, making it easy to mix with hip hop and R&B tracks in the dance. DJs loved how the riddim’s upbeat tempo matched other genres, letting them move smoothly between styles. Bling Dawg’s “Massacra” stood out with sharp lyrics and a strong delivery. Bounty Killer, a Grammy nominee known for his hit “Look,” brought fire to three tracks: “Bun A Fire,” “Entourage,” and “Mark Death.” His commanding voice was a highlight, giving the riddim its edge. Capleton, famous for the album “More Fire,” delivered “Overtime Bomb,” adding his signature fiery energy. Kid Kurrupt’s “East” and Mad Anju’s “Look Gal” both added unique flavors, showing the riddim’s range. Each artist’s style mixed well, making the riddim feel both familiar and new. Songs like “Wadup” by Merciless and “Disgrace” by Mr Vegas Harry Todler kept the party moving, while Nitty Kutchie Hawkeye’s “Speedy Love” brought a touch of melody. Behind the scenes, the studio craftsman shaped the sound, balancing vocals and riddim for maximum impact. The result was a dancehall mix that selectors couldn’t stop spinning, and crowds still remember.
