New Reggae Riddim Features All-Female Cast Of Dancehall Vocalists

Posted over 2 years ago
Reggae riddim producer Andre "Sukku" Grey (a member of Ward 21) recently composed and recorded Dem Gal Sittin riddim. Grey says the riddim "just had this all female vibe. You rarely have a dancehall rhythm which is dominated by females." But that's exactly what Grey got - a riddim with only female artists on board. So far, Lady Saw, Lady G, D'Angel, Tifa, Natalie Storm, Timberlee and Stacious have all recorded vocals on Dem Gal Sittin, but not a single male has. This may even be a first for dancehall music!Big Up The Dancehall Queen Massive!!!Grey also told news sources that the feedback so far has been positive and that a medley video is in the works for a November release date. I haven't heard the songs yet, but I did hear that D'Angel's version was lifeless and unexciting. So, if you have a choice, skip that one. I am super excited to hear the 2 Lady's versions though! I LOVE Lady Saw and Lady G both, can't wait to hear what they did here. I'm also just glad to see Lady G's name popping up again. It's nice to hear from her again. Now, can we get Dawn Penn on this riddim to make history truly magical?There's no audio or video for Girl Dem Sittin yet, and I wasn't able to find other videos (of reasonable quality) for any of these women (see how rare dis new ting?), except of course, Lady Saw and her smooth talkin:Source
