THREE RIDDIM CLASH 

The Real Rock Riddim set arrived in Jamaica in 2019, bringing a fresh take on classic roots reggae. The collection quickly gained attention for its conscious sound and deep, dub-influenced rhythms. Selectors in Jamaica and abroad embraced the riddim, spinning it at dances and on radio throughout 2021. Several well-known artists contributed to this set. Candyman’s “Back On My Feet Again” stands out for its uplifting message and smooth delivery. Johnny P, who found fame in the late 1980s with songs like “Bike Back, ” adds energy with “Dem Get Mi Mad. ” Courtney Melody, known for his hit “Bad Boy” from the 1980s, delivers “Good Lover, ” showing his signature vocal style. Pliers, who later teamed up with Chaka Demus for the international hit “Murder She Wrote, ” brings his unique voice to “Sound Boy. ” Japaness rounds out the lineup with “Wi Cant Done, ” adding a fresh voice to the project. The roots selector behind the set made careful choices, picking tracks that fit together with unity and warmth. Each song is layered over a solid, vinyl-inspired riddim, giving the set a timeless quality. While the producer’s identity is not widely noted, the selection and mixing reflect deep respect for roots traditions. Today, fans still play the Real Rock Riddim as a memory of roots reggae in 2021. The set remains popular for both dancing and thoughtful listening, showing the lasting power of conscious reggae music.
