ZIM YEAR OF SUCCESS RIDDIM produced by HAYNES|BAD COMPANY 2018
Zim Year Of Success Overview
The 2018 yard session tape built around the Zim Year Of Success Riddim stands out for its lively energy and smooth flow. The riddim itself is pure dancehall—hard-hitting drums, bouncing bass, and catchy melodies. It brings together the rough edge of deejay toasting with sweet, melodic vocals. This balance gives the set a party vibe, but there’s also depth in the lyrics and delivery. Faceless sets the tone with “My Way,” bringing a confident performance that matches the riddim’s drive. Killowat follows with “Music Is A Mission,” showing his skill as a lyricist. Killowat is known for his powerful stage presence and has built a reputation in the Zimbabwean dancehall scene. Lutah King’s “Around Di World” blends smooth hooks with conscious lyrics, a style that has earned him respect in local music circles. Ninja Minister’s “Why Why” adds a classic deejay flavor, while Poptain’s “Forgive Me” delivers heartfelt vocals. Poptain is recognized for his hit single “Fadza Mutengi,” which helped him gain national attention and multiple award nominations in Zimbabwe. The tape also features Tifta with “Some More” and Vybz Karlie’s “Human Design,” adding variety to the session. Behind the scenes, producer HAYNES|BAD COMPANY pulls everything together. Known for his work with the BAD COMPANY label, he has produced several popular riddims in Southern Africa and is respected for his crisp sound engineering. Even years later, dancehall selectors still spin this session tape.
