UNCHAINED RIDDIM produced by PLEASANT HILL 2000
Unchained Overview
In 2000, reggae fans got a special treat with a compilation featuring talented artists like Ally I, Better Roots, Biggaton, Capleton, and Jah Mason. Each artist brought their own style to the project. Capleton, well-known for his hit “Jah Jah City” and his strong presence in reggae and dancehall, added “Istic In The Cloud.” Jah Mason, who gained attention with his album “Most Royal,” gave us “I'm Going Home.” These artists helped make the compilation stand out. Ally I’s “Love Me Consciously” and Better Roots’ “High Speed Chase” showed the riddim’s soulful side. Biggaton contributed two tracks, “Mix Ii” and “What A Ting,” adding energy and variety. Other songs on the compilation included Jah Milo’s “Locs Fe Grow,” Jason Sweetness’ “Seen It With My Own Eyes,” Military Man’s “Love Black Supreme,” and Mutabaruka’s “It's Time To Realize.” Each song added a new flavor, making the project rich and diverse. The rootsy instrumental that tied these tracks together was created by PLEASANT HILL, a producer known for his deep, meditative style. PLEASANT HILL has worked with several respected reggae artists and is recognized for his skill in blending traditional and modern reggae sounds. This compilation became a favorite in roots reggae sets during the early 2000s, mixing culture, soul, and storytelling in every track.
