Premium Riddim – Star Kutt Records 2010
Premium Overview
In 2010, dancehall music was full of energy and excitement. The bashment rhythm was at the heart of many parties and street dances. This style brought people together, with its loud basslines and catchy beats. The Premium Riddim was one of the rhythms that made a big impact that year. The studio hand played an important role in shaping the sound. By carefully tuning the bass and drums, the studio team made sure the rhythm was strong and clear. Every artist who recorded on the Premium Riddim had a powerful foundation to build their song. Aidonia brought his unique voice to “Tell Me.” Known for his fast lyrics and strong delivery, Aidonia had already made a name for himself with songs like “Yeah Yeah.” Alaine’s “New Love” showed her smooth singing style. She is well known for her hit single “No Ordinary Love,” which helped her gain fans both in Jamaica and overseas. Cecile’s “Nuttn Betta Nuh Out Deh” added a confident vibe. Cecile is respected in dancehall, and her song “Can You Do the Work” with Sean Paul was a major success. Chino, with “Affi Get A Gal,” brought his own style. Chino is the son of reggae singer Freddie McGregor, and his song “From Mawning (Never Change)” was a big hit in Jamaica. Craig’s “For You” gave the rhythm a smooth, heartfelt touch. Each artist added their own flavor, but together, they kept the bashment spirit alive.
