SKANDAL RIDDIM produced by FRIENDLY FIRE MUSIC 2017
Skandal Overview
In 2017, the Skandal Riddim brought a fresh sound to roots reggae sessions. This riddim stood out because of its deep one drop base, which is a classic reggae drum pattern. Roots fans often talk about how this base gave the music a steady, powerful feel. But what made Skandal Riddim special was how it blended this roots style with touches from other genres, like modern dancehall and dub. This mix helped the riddim fit right into both radio playlists and lively sound system sets. Artists played a big part in shaping the riddim’s character. Myki Tuff’s song “Man Like Me” is a highlight. Myki Tuff is known in the UK reggae scene, and his earlier track "Can’t Stop the Vibes" got attention on reggae charts. His voice on “Man Like Me” brings warmth and energy. Exile Di Brave gives “Words Have A Way” a thoughtful style. Exile Di Brave is respected for his album “The Calling,” which showed his skill in roots reggae and dub. Luciano & Dan Giovanni join forces on “Haffi Get A Beaten,” adding strong vocal harmony. Luciano, often called “The Messenjah,” is famous for his uplifting lyrics and has won several reggae awards. Behind the scenes, FRIENDLY FIRE MUSIC produced the Skandal Riddim. This Birmingham-based label is known for supporting both new and veteran reggae artists. FRIENDLY FIRE MUSIC has worked on many well-loved reggae projects and is respected for its roots sound and quality production.
