RED BRIDGE RIDDIM produced by I STRONG RECORDS 2010
Red Bridge Overview
In 2010, the Red Bridge Riddim was a big sound in dancehall parties. The music came from I STRONG RECORDS, a label known for producing strong, catchy riddims. I STRONG RECORDS helped bring new energy to dancehall, and their work on this riddim made it stand out. This riddim mixes classic dancehall with touches from other genres. You can hear some reggae roots in the bass, but the percussion and fast tempo bring in a modern, almost hip hop feel. This made it easy for selectors to blend the riddim with other songs at parties, keeping the dancefloor moving. Artists on this riddim each brought their own style. I Strong (Kalonji 'I-Strong' D'aguilar) played a key role, with the “Red Bridge Rhythm Version” showing off the riddim’s full power. Perfect, known for his hit “Hand Cart Bwoy,” delivered “Box From Tax,” giving the riddim a sharp, lyrical edge. Sizzla, who has released over 50 albums in his career, added “Fashion & Style,” bringing his signature energy. G Monei’s “Why” gave a smooth, questioning vibe. CP had three tracks: “Shake It,” “Haffi Get Di Money,” and a mix of both, adding variety and fun. Fans still remember hearing this riddim in dances, blending easily with other genres and keeping everyone moving. The producer and artists made something special that year.
