SHOTTAS RIDDIM produced by DJ TRELL MUSIC
Shottas Overview
When Shottas Riddim dropped in 2022, it captured the pulse of the dancehall scene. The journey began in Kingston, where DJ TRELL MUSIC, known for pushing the boundaries of modern yard beats, teamed up with a tight circle of studio craftsmen. DJ Trell, the producer behind the project, had already built a reputation in the underground for his sharp ear and relentless work ethic. His label, DJ TRELL MUSIC, had started to gain traction that year, racking up thousands of streams across platforms and drawing attention for its fresh approach to dancehall production. Inside the studio, the energy was electric. DJ Trell worked closely with engineers to perfect the riddim’s bass-heavy groove, making sure every drum hit landed with force. The goal was to create something that would move crowds, not just in Jamaica, but worldwide. The riddim came alive when the artists stepped in. DJ Trell & Nato delivered “Top Shotta’s Back,” a track that quickly became a favourite in bashment sessions. Nato, already known for his dynamic flow, brought raw street energy, while DJ Trell’s production kept the vibe tight. Logi & DJ Trell’s “Sick” added another layer, with Logi’s sharp delivery standing out—he had previously made waves in the local scene for his clever wordplay. Furgus & DJ Trell’s “Cya Handle” rounded out the project, bringing a gritty, authentic edge. Shottas Riddim defined the sound of 2022 dancehall. Its impact was instant, echoing through parties and festivals, and it remains a milestone for everyone involved.
