BEST OF 2012 SLOW DANCEHALL REVIEW

As Jamaican music has evolved, the two traditional categories of “reggae” and “dancehall” no longer seem adequate. This chart is for the sort of songs that are neither real one-drop reggae, nor proper dancehall – the slower riddims that often straddle the divide between reggae, dancehall, hiphop and r&b.

(aired in reverse order finishing with number one)

1. I OCTANE – Walk With Jah Jah (Blackspyda)
JAH VINCI – Rise Against Me (Good Memories riddim: Black Spyda)
2. I OCTANE – My Story (DJ Frass)
3. CHRIS MARTIN – Chill Spot (Chill Spot riddim: Chimney Records)
4. DEMARCO – Give Thanks For Life
5. CHAN DIZZY – Gone Too Far (Black Spyda)
6. TARRUS RILEY – Love Up Mi Woman (Tuff Love riddim: DJ Frass)
7. POPCAAN – Caan Believe (Reservoir riddim: Young Vibez)
8. DEMARCO – It Ruff (Di Struggles riddim: DJ Frass)
9. I OCTANE & CHAN DIZZY – Til Kingdom Come (Head Concussion)
10. BUGLE – Jah Be With You (UIM)
