Undoubtedly the most popular riddim out of Jamaica in 2011, Justus Arison of JA Productions’ work was the basis for Mavado’s smash “Settle Down” and also featured the voices of international pop star Daniel Bedingfield, Sean Paul, Mavado, Swedish dancehall star Million Styles, Keida, Wayne Marshall, Kurrup (A.K.A Uncle Mucks) and a host of others. Released in August of last year, it quickly became one of the most requested and played riddims around the world—and it’s still burning up clubs as we speak.
