THE ASSAULT RIDDIM produced by HEARTICAL LABEL 2015
The Assault Overview
Released in 2015, the Assault Riddim album collection came out of France, shaped by the well-known HEARTICAL LABEL. This project kept close to the roots of classic reggae, using a familiar rhythm structure that reggae fans worldwide appreciate. One of the highlights of the collection is "Be Wise" by Cornel Campbell. Campbell is a legendary Jamaican singer, famous for his smooth falsetto voice and classic hits like "Queen of the Minstrels." His track on this album brings a calm, thoughtful delivery over the steady riddim. The Viceroys appear twice with "Get To Know" and "Get To Know (Alternate Mix)." The Viceroys are a respected vocal trio from Jamaica, best known for their 1980s hit "Heart Made of Stone." Both versions of their song add rich harmonies and gentle storytelling to the album. Colour Red brings "Holy Mount Zion," adding spiritual energy and roots reggae vibes. Badoo’s "African Wind" stands out with its deep bass and classic reggae style. HEARTICAL LABEL, the producer behind this release, has been active since the early 2000s. The label is known for working with both veteran and new reggae artists, and their productions have reached fans across Europe and beyond. HEARTICAL LABEL is respected for keeping reggae’s original sound alive while supporting artists from Jamaica and other parts of the world. The Assault Riddim collection remains a memorable cultural release from 2015, offering steady rhythms, strong vocals, and a true reggae spirit.
