WEEKEND RIDDIM produced by EASTLINK RECORDS 2012
Weekend Overview
In 2012, dancehall parties were full of life and excitement. The music was loud, the energy was high, and people came together to dance all night. The Weekend Riddim, produced by EASTLINK RECORDS, became a key part of this scene. EASTLINK RECORDS is known in Jamaica for working with both new and established artists, helping to push dancehall music forward. On this riddim, Karl Morrison stands out with "When You Pass My Way." Morrison has been active in the music scene for years, often praised for his smooth delivery. T Nez brings the party vibe with "Drinkers Paradise," a track that quickly became a favorite at many dances. Laden, who found fame with his hit "Time To Shine" and was a finalist on the Magnum Kings and Queens of Dancehall show, adds "Rave," a song that fits perfectly with the bashment mood. Supa Hype and Gyptian join forces for "Every Holiday." Gyptian is well known for his international hit "Hold Yuh," and here he brings his signature style to the track. Dalla Sign’s "Paranoid" adds a different flavor, giving listeners a mix of tension and rhythm. Other tracks, like "Inna Di Club" by O.K and "Rock To This" by Cece Bond, keep the energy high. Timeka Marshall’s "Know Your Name" and Monsta Twins’ "Drink And Get Merry" help round out the tape. Gyptian also appears solo with "Come Over," another nod to his strong dancehall roots.
