POCO AND RUM RIDDIM produced by RIVA NILE PRODUCTIONS 2014
Poco And Rum Overview
Today, selectors and dancehall fans still remember the Poco And Rum Riddim as a true sign of its era. The riddim’s rebellious energy and catchy beat made it a favorite in dancehall sessions. It brought people together and set the mood for many parties in 2014. The mix was a showcase for both new and established voices, giving each artist a chance to shine. General Degree stood out with his track "Bay Pretty Gyal In Yah." Known for his hit "Traffic Blocking" from the 1990s, General Degree has always brought clever lyrics and style to dancehall. Mr Traffic added his own flavor with "Goodaz Gyal Dem," keeping the party vibe strong. Delly Ranx, who has worked with big names like Sean Paul and produced several hits, delivered "Nuh More Than Yuh," showing his skill as both a deejay and a producer. Other artists also made their mark. Kool Shades came in with "Sample Mi," adding a unique twist to the riddim. Chedda’s "Wine And Go Down" brought even more energy, helping the riddim stay fresh from start to finish. Behind the scenes, RIVA NILE PRODUCTIONS was the driving force. The label, based in Jamaica, has produced several dancehall projects and is known for supporting local talent. Their work on Poco And Rum Riddim in 2014 showed how strong and creative yard studios could be. This selector’s mix still reminds us of the power of Jamaican studios and the bold spirit of dancehall music at that time.
