UP DI CITY RIDDIM produced by PV RECORDS
Up Di City Overview
In 2016, dancehall music was full of new energy and fresh sounds. The Up Di City Riddim, produced by PV RECORDS, was a good example of this trend. The riddim used a strong yard beat, which is a classic dancehall rhythm, but it also mixed in touches from other genres like hip hop and electronic music. This made the sound exciting and modern, while still keeping the deep Jamaican vibe. PV RECORDS is known in the dancehall world for working with both new and established artists. The label has released several popular riddims and has helped many artists reach wider audiences. On Up Di City Riddim, each artist brought their own style. Di Unusual’s "She Jump Off" added high energy, while Dotta Coppa’s "Ride It Gal" kept the dance floor moving. General B, known for his work with Monster Shack Crew and the hit "Shot A Buss," delivered "Come Off," showing his veteran skills. Krytixx performed "Up Di City," and Nitty Kutchie, who once sang with the group Scare Dem Crew, brought roots flavor with "Obeah Inna Music." Prince Villa’s "Up Di City Riddim" and Ras Goudie’s "Pv Mi Say" rounded out the project. This riddim was featured on many dancehall playlists in 2016. The blend of yard beat with other styles made it stand out, and the artists’ performances helped define the sound of that year.
