Toppatop Riddim – Big Records

Toppatop Riddim arrives as a 2001 dancehall project for B. I. G. (Big Records), with Ralston Barrett credited as the riddim producer behind the backing track. Spanning a tight lineup of voices, it pulls from Anthony B’s No Want No Trouble, Captain Barkey’s Screechie, Ce’Cile on Playa, and Delly Ranks with Go Go Club, before General B’s The Businessman and Tony Rebel’s Loyal Soldier round out the set. What makes the riddim identity feel instantly recognizable is how it stays geared toward toast-style delivery—clean hooks, driving bounce, and versions that lock the rhythm for multiple top-tier artists. The core DNA here is the B. I. G. house sound, with Ralston Barrett’s production keeping the Toppatop riddim working across the whole roster.
