Orlando-based music label, Kyaatame Productions, is preparing to release Who Na Na, which will be the company’s fourth ‘riddim’ in one year.
Virgel Young, a senior partner with the label, disclosed that Fully Bad and Stinga J have already recorded songs on the beat. Other top acts are expected to follow suit soon.
The Who Na Na follows the Blood Lyne, Tuff Road and Wild Suh ‘riddims’ which introduced Kyaatame Productions in December last year. Young sees no problem with releasing multiple beats in a calendar year.
“The more riddim yuh put out, the more artists will have songs in their catalog,” he argued.
Kyaatame Productions’ first official release was the Tuff Road which was driven by songs like “Jah Jah Give mi Life” by Singer J and “Top Gyallis” from Delly Ranks. Next up was the Blood Lyne in January which had songs such as “Assemble” by Iwaata and “Thief Inna Night” by Global X.
“Different Currency” by Global X and “Knw” by Iwaata are two of the singles on the Wild Suh, which was released in April.
Young stressed that he and his team are committed to releasing hardcore music that reflects the realities of everyday life.
“It’s an expression of the streets. We want the songs on our riddims to be expressed in the broadest way,” he said.
