Team Overview
Today, many fans remember Team Riddim for its powerful impact on dancehall music. The riddim’s energetic beat and catchy hooks made it a favorite in clubs across the island. Even now, DJs and selectors still play it at parties, showing how much it means to the dancehall crowd. Team Riddim brought together several talented artists, each adding their own style. Orlando Octave ft. Mayans Family made waves with “Mayans Team.” Orlando Octave is well known for his hit “Love You So,” which helped him gain recognition in the Caribbean music scene. Mayans Family also delivered “Mayans Team,” showing their strong presence on the riddim. Kerry John’s “Brukis Team” brought a different flavor, and fans enjoyed his lively performance. Squeezy Rankin ft. GTM Family dropped “Strip Club Anthem,” a song that quickly became popular in party circles. GTM Family also released their own version, “Strip Club Anthem.” Squeezy Rankin is known for his work with Machel Montano, one of soca’s biggest names, which shows his reach beyond just dancehall. Other artists like Junglist with “Hustlin,” Ring Leader with “Dancehall Queen,” and Black Wiz with “Mama Stop Swear” helped round out the collection. Pumpman’s “Ent Yuh Know Dem” and Millbeatz & Lackaz’s “Team Riddim” added even more energy to the project. At the center of it all was MILLBEATZ ENTERTAINMENT / CENTRAL RECORDS. The label is known for working with both local and international acts, and for producing several popular dancehall and soca riddims over the years. With Team Riddim, they created a collection that stood tall among the heavy bashment drops of 2012, leaving a lasting mark on Caribbean music.
