TRENDING RIDDIM produced by GHAGE MADDIS 2023
Trending Overview
In 2023, the fete mix built on the Trending Riddim became a staple at carnival events across the Caribbean and beyond. The mix featured a tight lineup of tracks that kept crowds moving: Muddy’s “Mas Jesus,” Ghage Maddis with “Whine Up,” Loose Cannon’s “Set Up,” Frost’s “Doing It,” and Kay Frass’s “Trending.” Each song brought its own flavor, but together they created a nonstop party vibe that defined the season. Muddy’s “Mas Jesus” stood out for its infectious energy, quickly becoming a crowd favorite at fetes. Ghage Maddis, who not only performed “Whine Up” but also produced the riddim, played a major role in shaping the sound of the project. As a producer, Ghage Maddis is known for his work with the label Maddis Music and has been recognized for his contributions to modern soca, including high streaming numbers on major platforms. Loose Cannon delivered “Set Up” with a raw, lively style that matched the intensity of the carnival road. Frost’s “Doing It” kept the tempo high, while Kay Frass brought his signature touch to “Trending,” a track that echoed through festivals and street parades. Kay Frass is also known for his earlier hit “Top Gyal,” which helped cement his reputation in the dancehall and soca scenes. Behind the scenes, the carnival director, who has a background in organizing large-scale Caribbean festivals, helped bring the music to wider audiences. Their experience ensured the fete mix reached every corner of the celebration. Looking back, no 2023 carnival felt complete without this mix lighting up the party and keeping the mas alive.
