Performed over a one-drop Reggae beat, the genre luminary sings about a woman wanting to receive a signal from her love interest for whom she has a strong attraction. Her song is among 4 tracks on the riddim that features Maxi Priest and Sean Paul, Morgan Heritage, Luciano, and Quan Dajai.
Making its radio debut on Isle 95 n The Reef 103.5 FM in the US Virgin Islands as well as MoodsRadio UK, Richard Thomas, popularly known as Lion Face, is happy with first week numbers for J.C. Lodge’s single. “J.C. has a beautiful voice. We are happy that fans are enjoying what she’s putting out – good Reggae music.” Feedback from Papa Richie on Ottawa’s CHUO 89.7 FM supports YouTube chart metrics. The 30-year radio broadcaster says “the lineup of artists on this riddim makes it a modern classic. J.C. Lodge shines.”
Listeners have given the riddim ratings of approval, with special note for the diversity of artists presented. Lion Face says “This riddim is extra special because we hear Reggae the way the genre originally released music – with multiple artists on the riddim. We have Morgan Heritage featuring Peetah on the lead vocals. Peetah’s voice is one of the most known voices in modern Reggae. Also, we hear Sean Paul on a one-drop riddim which we haven’t heard for a while. J.C. Lodge and Maxi Priest shine, Luciano sings about love for his Empress in a way not commonly heard, and upcoming artist Quan Dajai earns his spot as a talent we want to hear more from.”
Lion Face’s success with music production dates back to the year 2000 with the release of the Unleaded Riddim. His success continued with Lyfe Turn Riddim in 2011, The Ark Riddim in 2020 and the Divorce Court Riddim in 2022 all of which have earned him worldwide acclaim. He has worked with the genre’s most notable artists including J.C. Lodge, Sean Paul, Shabba Ranks, Gyptian, Gappy Ranks and more.
