SWEET MELANIN RIDDIM produced by DSM MUSIC / MONK MUSIC 2021
Sweet Melanin Overview
In 2021, the Sweet Melanin Riddim brought a strong party feeling to the dancehall scene. The riddim’s backdrop is full of energy, mixing hardcore dancehall beats with catchy hooks. This blend makes it easy for fans of other genres, like soca and Afrobeat, to enjoy the music. The party vibe is not just about loud rhythms—it’s about how different styles come together to create something fresh. Each artist on the riddim brings their own flavor. V’ghn’s “Sweet Melanin” stands out with smooth vocals and a melody that sticks in your head. Ricardo Drue and Turner join forces on “Dear Beloved,” adding a touch of Caribbean romance to the dancefloor. Ricardo Drue is well known for his soca hit “Vagabond,” which shows his strength in crossing genres. Ronnie Holder delivers “Meh Darlin,” keeping the old-school party spirit alive. Adam O and Rae team up on “Hot Topic,” giving the riddim a modern twist with their lively performance. Machel Montano and Jahllano’s “Sweet Creation” is another highlight. Machel Montano is one of soca’s biggest stars, famous for his album “Monk Evolution” and many Carnival hits. His presence on the riddim helps bridge dancehall and soca even more. The producer, DSM MUSIC / MONK MUSIC, played a big role in shaping the sound. Known for working with top Caribbean artists and focusing on sound system culture, DSM MUSIC / MONK MUSIC keeps the riddim exciting and true to its roots. Many people say the party backdrop defined dancehall’s bashment energy in 2021, making Sweet Melanin Riddim a standout project that brought artists and genres together.
