SHO GUN RIDDIM produced by A-TOWN RECORDS 2013
Sho Gun Overview
In 2013, A-TOWN RECORDS released the Sho Gun Riddim, a dancehall set that captured the rebellious spirit of its time. The label, known for pushing energetic and modern bashment sounds, brought together a group of artists who each added their own style to the project. A-TOWN RECORDS had already built a reputation for lively productions and had seen its music streamed widely across the Caribbean and beyond. The recording process for Sho Gun Riddim stood out because of the work of the sound engineer, who crafted a crisp, heavy bassline and sharp percussion. This gave the riddim its signature drive and made each track stand out. The engineer’s attention to detail made sure every artist’s voice and flow matched well with the beat, creating a strong, unified sound. G Maffiah’s “Bless Mi” is one of the standout tracks, bringing his distinctive delivery and lyrical energy. Tyrical’s “Dutty Still” adds a raw edge, reflecting the gritty side of dancehall. Daka Shade, with “Nuh Gun,” offers a powerful message and catchy hook, showing his skill in blending social commentary with party vibes. Fire Aji’s “More Love” brings a positive message, while Tuff Enuff’s “Certain Tings” rounds out the set with a tough, confident performance. Each artist shaped the Sho Gun Riddim with their unique voice, making the project one of the bashment highlights of 2013. The combination of A-TOWN RECORDS’ production, skilled engineering, and strong performances made this riddim a true standout in dancehall that year.
