WATU RIDDIM produced by TWENTY FIVE MUSIC 2022
Watu Overview
The yard beat of 2022 made a big impact in Jamaica’s dancehall scene. Watu Riddim, produced by TWENTY FIVE MUSIC, was one of the standout mixes that year. The riddim’s strong percussion and smooth flow set it apart from many other bashment releases of the time, which often focused on heavy digital sounds and fast-paced rhythms. Instead, Watu Riddim kept the energy high but added a touch of unity and groove that was easy to feel on the dancefloor. TWENTY FIVE MUSIC, known for their creative approach to modern dancehall, brought together a group of talented artists on this riddim. Dez Dymond’s “Dance Fi Fck” was a highlight, showing his skill at blending catchy hooks with dancehall’s raw energy. Dez Dymond has built a name for himself in the scene, especially after the success of “Dance Fi Fck,” which became popular in local parties and online playlists. Eli teamed up with Dez for “Salsina,” adding a fresh vibe to the project. Kamaleon Don Don’s “Chicas Malas” brought a Latin touch, while Mr. Blond dropped “Full Raspe (feat. Mr. Blond),” a track that kept the crowd moving. Tj Chony’s “Muevelo” rounded out the mix with a lively, club-ready sound. Compared to other riddims of 2022, Watu Riddim stood tall because of its focus on collaboration and its unique, percussion-driven style. With TWENTY FIVE MUSIC at the controls, the riddim echoed through clubs across the island, proving that unity and rhythm can still light up the dancehall.
