SPAZZIE RIDDIM produced by 2011

Spazzie Overview

ZJ Chrome’s CR203 Records is the label behind the Spazzie Riddim, a dancehall release that first appeared in 2011. The riddim quickly became known for its strong, modern sound that captured the rebellious mood of the early 2010s. ZJ Chrome, a respected Jamaican producer and radio DJ, is widely recognized for his work on several influential dancehall projects, and Spazzie Riddim stands out as one of his signature creations. The project features a select group of artists who each brought their own style to the riddim. Shawn Storm, known for his close association with Vybz Kartel and for songs like “My Life,” added his track “Cheat Again.” His delivery on this song fits perfectly with the riddim’s bold energy. Ajrenalin, another rising voice at the time, contributed “Mohawk.” Ajrenalin later gained more attention for his single “One Room,” but “Mohawk” on Spazzie Riddim helped him reach a wider dancehall audience. Chase Cross, who is related to Mavado and part of the Gullyside camp, delivered “Yes I Am.” His work on this riddim showed his ability to hold his own among other strong voices in dancehall. Spazzie Riddim remains one of the purest examples of dancehall sound from 2011. Its influence continued into the next decade, and selectors still return to it for its raw, energetic vibe. The riddim’s lasting appeal comes from the unique blend of talent and the producer’s clear vision.
