In 2001, dancehall was moving fast, and sound systems wanted tracks that could shake the crowd. The Stamina Daddy Riddim arrived right on time, packed with heavy basslines and a groove that fit perfectly with the energy of the year. DJs and selectors quickly picked up the cut, making it a favorite in parties and dances across Jamaica and beyond. The driving force behind this riddim is the producer known as TECHNIQUES. With a reputation for crafting catchy, dance-ready beats, TECHNIQUES is also the founder of the Techniques label, which has been behind many popular dancehall releases since the 1990s. The label’s catalog includes other big riddims and has helped launch several major hits in the genre. On Stamina Daddy Riddim, three artists stand out. Alozade brings his unique voice to “Art Of War,” adding a gritty edge that fans recognize from his earlier work, including the well-known single “Bad Man Nuh Pet Gal.” Hawkeye’s “Down Down” delivers his signature playful style. Hawkeye is known for his clever lyrics and also gained attention with the hit “Man A Bad Man.” Mr. Easy rounds out the trio with “Mr. Dough,” showing his smooth delivery. Mr. Easy has had international success, especially with his song “Drive Me Crazy,” which charted in several countries. Even today, selectors still reach for this 2001 collection when they want to get the dance moving.
