You, the listener, will be the final judge regarding the success or failure of this song and by extension, the 'riddim'. So what do we think about this song? Let's get to it...
The start of this song was a little different, using the guitar to introduce a thumping bass line worked. We really like the chest thumping bass on this track.
Good music creates a vibe that makes a 'riddim' work but more importantly the vocals and the lyrical prowess of the songwriters will take the song to another level. The music and then the vocals followed by the magic of the lyrical content. We have the vocals of Sekon Sta, the man spit out a lot to start the song, but for some reason, I felt like I needed to hear more. The song moved so quickly that it felt like the story was incomplete. Of course, we get it, we understand the story. However, 2:31 minutes just does not cut it! Come on guys, this song needed to be one minute longer, 3:31minutes at a minimum!
The lyrical content has some potential, if you look at the lines below one can see that with a little more though this could have been a carnival story to remember but they quit early and came up with a limited (it feels rushed) story.
"Don't play, don't be quick to walk away. Doh care what nobody says. I love de ting in front of me, in front of me... Could you be my number one?"
The song, the story has potential but they sold themselves short by literally creating a song that was 'short of the mark' in terms of content and length of music production. What is do you think? Please share your opinion with your peers by using the comment feature of this post.
