SOCIAL STUDIES RIDDIM produced by BRANDISH 2018
Social Studies Overview
Back in 2018, dancehall fans got a real treat with a set of songs that brought back the true vibes of the dancehall streets. The collection was built around the Social Studies Riddim, and it stood out among other dancehall releases from that year. While some riddims went for a softer or more pop sound, this one kept the rough energy that fans love. Capleton’s track “Hard Cover” is a big highlight. Capleton is already famous for songs like “Jah Jah City” and is known for his strong, fiery delivery. On this riddim, he brings the same power. Tyrical’s “Jah Will” adds a thoughtful, rootsy touch. Tyrical also teams up with Ghost for “Ambition,” showing a different side with a mix of melody and street style. Shaneo’s “Thanks” is another favorite. Shaneo is known in the dancehall scene for his catchy hooks, and this song keeps his name buzzing. Zayah comes in with “Rise To The Top,” a song that pushes for success, fitting the uplifting side of the riddim. The sound engineer made sure every beat hit hard and every vocal was clear. That helped the songs stand out in the dance. The producer, BRANDISH, is well known in the dancehall world for bringing together strong riddims. He has worked with many top artists and helped shape the sound of modern dancehall. Even years later, selectors still play these tracks at parties and dances.
