ROOTAL RIDDIM produced by DROP DI BASS ENTERTAINMENT 2007
Rootal Overview
In 2007, a fresh reggae rhythm project brought new life to the scene. The sound architect behind the music shaped every beat and tone, aiming to blend the classic reggae feel with the energy of the new era. This journey started in the studio, where the core vision was to create a rhythm that could connect with both old-school fans and a younger crowd. DROP DI BASS ENTERTAINMENT led the production. Known for pushing reggae into new spaces, the label had already made waves in the Caribbean and beyond. Their projects often draw attention for their rich sound and attention to quality, and this riddim was no different. As the tracks came together, a group of talented artists joined the project. Calibe delivered “After All,” adding heartfelt vocals. Diplomat brought “Wash Over Gold,” giving the riddim a deep, thoughtful touch. Drop Di Bass Ent offered the “Rootal Riddim Version,” showing the roots of the project itself. Jah Bammi’s “Havn't Noticed” and Kevin Lyttle’s “First Time” stood out—Kevin Lyttle, already famous for his global hit “Turn Me On,” added star power and smooth style. Every artist, from Likwid with “I Pray” to Michael Rose with “Abc,” added their unique voice. Together, the project captured reggae’s true heart in 2007, leaving a lasting mark on the genre.
