Dutty Rock Revives Showtime Riddim with 'Dutty Showtime'
Dutty Rock Productions has released Dutty Showtime, a fresh reimagining of the legendary Showtime Riddim originally crafted by renowned producer Dave Kelly.
The project brings together a dynamic lineup of top reggae and dancehall talent, including Tarrus Riley, Buju Banton, Busy Signal, Chi Ching Ching, Charley Black, and newcomers like J'Calm, Sotto Bless, and Ras Ajai. The label's own Sean Paul also makes an appearance with his hit single Bring It, which channels classic 90's dancehall vibes.
The Showtime Riddim, celebrated as a staple in dancehall music, was highlighted by Rolling Stone as one of the "25 Riddims That Have Defined Jamaican Music." Its timeless appeal continues to influence artists today. For Sean Paul, participating in this project was a chance to honor a sound that shaped his early career, infusing it with modern flair.
Reggae star Tarrus Riley expressed his excitement: "Growing up in the 90s Showtime was one of the top riddims, definitely in the top three for me. It’s a great feeling to be part of this project today and express gratitude to Dutty Rock for the opportunity."
Dutty Showtime is now available on all streaming platforms, blending nostalgia with contemporary beats and celebrating the lasting impact of Dave Kelly's iconic production. You can listen to and download the riddim below from Amazon and Apple Music.
