STRUGGLING RIDDIM produced by VII PRODUCTIONS 2014
Struggling Overview
The one drop base is a special drum pattern in reggae music. It started in Jamaica in the 1970s and became very popular in roots reggae. By 2014, this style was still a big part of reggae’s sound. Many artists and producers used the one drop base to keep the roots feeling alive. On the “Struggling Riddim” project in 2014, several talented artists came together. Clarkz gave us “Seed Weh Yuh Sow,” a song with a strong message. Empress Tetteh’s track “Time Waits 4 No Man” showed her smooth voice and wise lyrics. Hya P’s “Struggle Is On” talked about real-life challenges and hope. Jah Defender is known for his uplifting songs, and here he delivered “You Got Me.” Myer also joined with “My Inspiration,” adding more positive energy to the project. Empress Tetteh is respected in the reggae community, especially for her work with African reggae sounds. Jah Defender is known for his album “Rastaman Rise,” which brought him more fans in Trinidad and beyond. The music was arranged with care, letting each artist shine. Behind it all was VII PRODUCTIONS. This label is known for working with many reggae and dancehall artists. VII PRODUCTIONS has produced riddims that reached reggae fans worldwide. The “Struggling Riddim” project became a cultural gem in 2014, showing the power of roots reggae with a modern touch.
