Star Track Riddim – Various Artists

STAR TRACK RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2007

Star Track Overview

Back in 2007, the Star Track Riddim compilation became a big sound in dancehall. It stood out because of the selector’s smart choices and the strong line-up of artists. Compared to other compilations from the time, Star Track Riddim kept things simple but powerful, letting each artist shine on the same beat. Anthony B brings his energy to “Nah Nah Nah.” He is known for his conscious lyrics and songs like “Fire Pon Rome.” Bounty Killa, a giant in dancehall, delivers “Rubbish To The Dust Pan.” Bounty Killa is famous for winning the 2002 MOBO Award for Best Reggae Act and for his influence on the genre. Lady Saw, the “Queen of Dancehall,” adds her style with “How You Suh Good.” Lady Saw later won a Grammy for her feature on No Doubt’s “Underneath It All.” Munga & Jah Malo team up for “Band New,” giving the riddim a fresh vibe. Roach brings “Caan Hail Me,” and Wissy’s “Wine It Fast” keeps the party going. The “Version — Star Track” is also included, letting DJs mix and create their own sound. The producer, VARIOUS ARTISTS, is known for putting together strong dancehall projects on labels like Big Ship and for working with top names in the industry. DJs still play these tracks from Star Track Riddim at sessions, keeping the 2007 dancehall spirit alive.
