6. RDX, “Shake Your Bam Bam”

RDX singles sometimes slip under the radar in the dancehall conversation, but the duo’s anthems are designed for dancefloors first and foremost. Songs like “Bend Over,” “Jump,” “Kotch,” “Broad Out” and “Bang” have consistently lit up parties over the years. “Shake Your Bam Bam” was released early summer, right on time for festival sets! The Sister Nancy interpolation, Toots/Pliers interpolations and simple dancing instructions made this one an instant hit. — Gabriel Heatwave
