Saddle Up Overview
In 2014, dancehall fans were treated to a new wave of music that blended old-school vibes with fresh sounds. One of the standout releases from that time was a collection built on the Saddle Up Riddim. The project was produced by ZJ ICE and THIRTY SIX DEGREES. ZJ ICE is known in Jamaica for his work as both a radio DJ and producer, bringing energetic dancehall tracks to the airwaves. THIRTY SIX DEGREES has helped shape the sound of modern dancehall, working with different artists and building a reputation for quality productions. This riddim became a big moment for new artists, giving them a chance to shine alongside established names. Busy Signal, already known for his hit “Stay So” and his album “Loaded,” delivered “Busy Signal — Saddle Up (Clean),” a track that showed off his smooth flow and catchy style. Gage, who was just starting to break through in the dancehall scene, made his mark with “Gage — Put It Yasso.” This song helped him reach a wider audience and set the stage for his future releases. Qq, famous for his earlier hit “Stookie,” brought energy to the collection with “Qq — Wine & Come Over (Clean).” This song continued his run of dance tracks that got people moving. Fans from 2014 remember the selector’s choice as a true dancehall anthem. The Saddle Up Riddim not only captured the sound of the moment but also gave new voices a chance to be heard, making it a memorable release in dancehall history.
