Ruff Street Overview

The Ruff Street Riddim brought together some of dancehall’s most exciting voices in 2012. Lady Sovereign, known for her global hit "Love Me Or Hate Me," showed her unique style on this riddim. Vegas, famous for songs like "Heads High," delivered the bold track "Shes A Hoe." Cecile, who has worked with artists like Sean Paul and is well known for her album "Bad Gyal," added her smooth touch with "Hot Like We." Loo Ranks brought energy with "Attitude Raggamuffin," and Dj Toots, the driving force behind the project, gave the riddim its name and direction with "Ruff Street Riddim." The magic of this riddim came from blending hardcore deejay cuts with smooth, melodic vocals. Each artist brought their own style, but together, they created a powerful bashment flow. The mix of rough and smooth sounds kept the energy high and the dance floors moving. DJ TOOTS PRODUCTION, the producer behind the riddim, is known for shaping unique dancehall projects. The label has worked on several notable riddims and has a reputation for bringing out the best in both established and rising artists.
