Video Chat Riddim – Jay Crazie Records

Jay Crazie Records’ Video Chat Riddim lands in the 2016 dancehall wave with a bright, digital bounce and a playful, flirtatious edge. The rhythm has that quick-step juggling feel that leaves space for the vocals to jab, tease, and flex without getting buried in the mix. Jay Crazie handles the production, and the set closes with his own instrumental, which helps frame the riddim as a producer-led piece rather than just a loose compilation.

Charly Black gives the project its biggest-name pull with “Nothing to Something, ” bringing the same streetwise confidence and easy melody that made him a familiar voice well beyond Jamaica. Chevaughn adds a smoother, more uplifted tone on “Long Time Now, ” while Voicemail’s “Deh Suh, Yah Suh” brings the group’s harmony-driven dancehall style into the fold. Tiana’s “Cheater” sits nicely in the middle of the set, using her sharp delivery and female perspective to give the riddim another angle.

The rest of the lineup keeps the energy moving. Damell’s “Kawasaki” and Diesel High’s “Heavenly Touch” push the more raw, bashment side, while Raytid’s “Sexual Conflict” featuring Rhogue adds extra drama. Spookie’s “Fall in Love With You” and Transporta’s “Touch You Again” stay in the lovers-rock and flirtation pocket, giving the riddim a bit of balance across its clean and raw cuts. It feels like one of those mid-2010s dancehall packages designed for DJs and sound systems, with enough variety to keep a juggling going without losing its pulse.
