Paradigm Shift Riddim – Small Axe / Rebel Sound

PARADIGM SHIFT RIDDIM produced by SMALL AXE ENTERTAINMENT / REBEL SOUND RECORDS

Paradigm Shift Overview

The Paradigm Shift Riddim, released in 2020, stands out as a cultural milestone in modern reggae. The project was produced by SMALL AXE ENTERTAINMENT in collaboration with REBEL SOUND RECORDS. Both labels are respected for their dedication to roots reggae and for providing a platform to both established and emerging artists. Over the years, SMALL AXE ENTERTAINMENT has built a reputation for championing conscious music and supporting the roots sound, helping to shape the reggae landscape with projects like this one. The riddim itself is rich in traditional reggae elements, with a steady bassline and warm, vintage instrumentation. The recording process focused on capturing an authentic roots vibe, using live musicians and analog techniques to give the music depth and character. This approach allowed each artist to express their message with clarity and soul. Lutan Fyah delivers a heartfelt performance on “Cried Unto Jah,” bringing spiritual depth to the riddim. Renegad’s “Farmer Man” pays tribute to the hardworking people of the land, while N Young’s “Worthy” offers a message of encouragement and self-value. Ras Fraser Jr’s “One Set a Artiste” and Inna Vision’s “Things We Give” each add their own unique voice, strengthening the project’s unity. Other strong contributions come from Duane Stephenson with “God Nah Sleep,” Fantan Mojah’s “Show Love,” Junior X’s “Jah Will Deliver Us,” Tydal Kamau’s “Mr. Cancer,” and Chezidek’s “All Will Be Gone.” Paradigm Shift Riddim remains an important part of reggae history, giving young artists a chance to shine while staying true to the roots tradition.
