The Mix Overview
The Mix Riddim started in Jamaica in 2007, built on the strong one drop reggae beat. This riddim came from the famous John John Records, a label known for producing big reggae and dancehall hits since the 1990s. John John Records is led by Lloyd James Jr., son of the legendary King Jammy, and has helped shape modern dancehall. On The Mix Riddim, the artists brought real energy. Buju Banton’s "Sound Killa" stands out. Buju is known worldwide, especially for his Grammy-winning album "Before the Dawn." Busy Signal appears twice, with "Murderous Prayer" and "Real Hot Head." Busy Signal is famous for his hit "Night Shift" and is one of dancehall’s most creative voices. Capleton brings fire with "Grippy Grippy." Capleton is a reggae icon, known for conscious lyrics and songs like "Jah Jah City." Hollow Point’s "Weak Heart" and John Wayne’s "Jealousy A Kill Dem" add more flavor. Each artist gives their own style, keeping the riddim lively and full of culture. The dub engineer played a key role, blending all the vocals and instrumentals to give the riddim its unique sound. John John Records made sure the music kept reggae’s message strong and clear. The Mix Riddim filled sound systems with culture and kept the reggae spirit alive in 2007.
