'Run Riddim' is a new series within the no long talk reasonings. The sole inspiration is celebrating classic riddims. The classic riddims we all buss gun finger, a dance, hold a meds or partner to. Dancehall isn't an album-driven genre, it's about riddims. While others celebrate albums, we'll celebrate riddims. I'm a fan of every decade of dancehall. I'm not a fan of people who believe nothing great was made after '90s. With that being said, this special episode is a 10 year celebration of one of dancehall's definitive riddims, Anger Management. Though it was officially released towards the end of 2004, it's all about the impact year (a.k.a. when it buss). The riddim buss in 2005, hence ten years. When it comes to gun man spewing venom, Anger Management is the usually soundtrack. Just watch Sting every year and you'll basically hear it on loop, including the end of the famous Mavado vs Vybz Kartel clash in 2008. And I struggle to name five bigger gun man riddims over the last decade. no long talk reasoned with composer of the dark symphony, Serani (formerly of Daseca). While better known for solo hit 'No Games' on the self-produced Unfinished Business riddim, he is one of the most profilic producers behind many of the other biggest hits of the noughties (2000s) including Tony Matterhorn 'Dutty Wine', Elephant Man 'Willie Bounce', Mr. Vegas 'I Am Blessed' and Sean Paul 'We Be Burnin'. This is strictly a chat with the producer side. We speak about the Anger Management riddim's making, stories about the hits, struggle to break a (then) new artist named Mavado (you may know of him!), its impact, influence and legacy. He also gives valuable insight into the Bounty Killer-led Alliance camp, Vybz Kartel's departure, Gully vs Gaza and state of dancehall 10 years later. As someone who spent many a night bussing gun finger to this riddim with my bredrins, this is was a bit surreal for me. Side note: My bredrins and I have spent so many hours of life answering/debating 'You're playing in a dance and can only select three songs on the riddim, which ones and why?' Would like to know your answer. Big up Julian Jones-Griffith for the extra information and link.
