UNIVERSAL RIDDIM produced by MASSIVE B 2014
Universal Overview
In 2014, the Universal Riddim brought fresh energy to dancehall music. This bashment rhythm was created by the well-known producer Massive B, who is also the founder of the Massive B label. Massive B, whose real name is Bobby Konders, has a long history in reggae and dancehall, producing hits and running a popular radio show in New York. He is known for blending traditional Jamaican sounds with modern beats, and the Universal Riddim is a good example of his style. The recording process was all about teamwork and studio skill. Massive B crafted the upbeat, driving rhythm that became the base for the artists. Each artist recorded their vocals separately, adding their own style and lyrics to the track. The result was a strong, unified sound that kept the dancehall vibe alive. Junior Reid, known for his hit "One Blood," added his voice to the riddim with the song "Bubbler." His unique delivery gave the track a classic feel. Spragga, who has worked with international stars like Wyclef Jean, brought high energy to "Gettin Money." Burro, a veteran in the dancehall scene, delivered his trademark rough vocals on "Lock." Spice, famous for her chart-topping single "So Mi Like It," added her powerful presence with "Want A Man." Together, these artists shaped the bashment rhythm of Universal Riddim, making it a favorite for DJs and dancehall fans. Even years later, this 2014 recording still gets played in clubs, showing the lasting impact of Massive B’s studio work and the artists’ strong performances.
