PSYCHO RIDDIM produced by U.I.M RECORDS 2012
Psycho Overview
In 2012, a new sound took over the dancehall scene from Jamaica: the Psycho Riddim. This bashment project was released by U.I.M RECORDS, a label known for shaping modern dancehall. U.I.M RECORDS, founded by Anju Blaxx, has produced major hits for artists like Vybz Kartel and Popcaan. Their influence on the genre is clear, and with Psycho Riddim, they made another big mark. The Psycho Riddim brought together a strong line-up of artists. Spangulaz delivered "Dem No Badact," a track that quickly caught the attention of dancehall fans. Basiclly’s "Everyboss Drink Henessy" became a favorite in parties, showing his talent for catchy hooks. Niel came with "Gun Dem Big - Medzman diss," adding lyrical fire to the project. Other standout tracks include "Never Swear Fi Man Medzman diss" by 1bwoy, and "Nonsmile" by Kyle & Teeno. Each artist brought their own style, but together they kept the energy high and the dancefloor moving. The riddim also featured Phoenix 5 with "Oh Lord," Supa with "Psycho," and group efforts like 5Star, Stickz & Mdarg on "Psycho." Notably, Tommy Lee joined forces with Dj Reptile for another version of "Psycho," while Dj Reptile also had his own take on the track. For many selectors and fans, Psycho Riddim became the soundtrack of 2012. Its fresh sound and memorable tracks made it a touchstone in dancehall culture, and it still gets play today. If you love bashment, this project is a must-listen.
