ROOTS AND CULTURE RIDDIM produced by EXPLORER RECORDING COMPANY 2001
Roots And Culture Overview
In 2001, the sound system cut of the Roots and Culture Riddim was a big tune in dancehall. This version stood out from other bashment releases of that year because of its clean sound and high energy. Many bashment tracks at the time focused on heavy bass and fast lyrics, but the Roots and Culture Riddim offered a fresh style with sharp beats and lively arrangements. Artists like Cyborg, Paul Manna, and Gen brought their own flavor to the riddim. Cyborg is known for his hit song "Make Millions," which helped him become a familiar name in dancehall. Paul Manna’s "La La" showed his smooth delivery and catchy hooks. Gen, also known as Gen-Ra-Lus, performed "Roots and Culture," adding a strong voice to the project. Explorer Family contributed with "Special Mix," giving the riddim an extra layer for sound system selectors. The arranger in bashment music plays an important role, shaping how each artist’s vocals fit with the riddim. This helps the songs connect well with the crowd, especially at dancehall parties. EXPLORER RECORDING COMPANY produced this release. The label is known for its work in the early 2000s, helping to push dancehall music worldwide. Even today, selectors still rate this 2001 bashment release highly for its unique style and lasting impact.
