POLICE IN HELICOPTER RIDDIM produced by MARSHALL NEEKO 2022
Police In Helicopter Overview
In 2022, a fresh wave of reggae energy arrived with the release of the Police In Helicopter Riddim. This modern take on a classic reggae foundation came from producer MARSHALL NEEKO, a French beatmaker known for his deep love of Jamaican music. MARSHALL NEEKO has built a reputation for bringing veteran voices and timeless rhythms back into the spotlight, and his work often appears on the Roots Cooperation label. The journey began in the studio, where MARSHALL NEEKO carefully crafted the Police In Helicopter Riddim—a groove inspired by the golden era of reggae but with a crisp, contemporary edge. As anticipation grew in the reggae community, legendary vocalists were invited to bring their unique styles to the project. Cornell Campbell, famous for his soaring falsetto and hits like "Queen of the Minstrel," contributed "In Paradise," giving the riddim a touch of soulful optimism. Dennis Brown, often called the “Crown Prince of Reggae” and known for timeless songs such as "Money In My Pocket," delivered "Rolling Stone," adding heartfelt emotion. John Holt, whose classic "Police In Helicopter" once topped reggae charts, returned to the theme with his own version, offering wisdom and experience. Junior Delgado’s "21 Families" and Mikal Rose’s "Oz. Of Sensimellia" brought further depth, with each artist weaving their stories into the fabric of the riddim. The release also featured Sluggy Ranks with "Render your Heart," Sugar Minott’s "Spread the Love," and MARSHALL NEEKO’s own "Police In Helicopter Version." From creation to release, this project quickly became a staple in reggae playlists, proving reggae’s enduring strength in 2022.
