2020 saw Ragz To Richez Production making all the necessary moves to become a fixture in various parts of the world. One of the releases that caught the ear of many was Ding Dong’sMirror”. Released in May 2020 on the “Public Figure Riddim”, the single quickly amassed thousands of plays on various digital music streaming outlets, and became one of the songs that ruled the summer thanks to being performed at events like Reggae Sumfest 2020. A music video was also made for the single, and has since scored over 800,000 views on Youtube.

Following Ding Dong’s hit for Ragz To Richez Production, Qraig, and emerging artists Intence and Kemar Highcon followed up with the singles “Outside Mi Deh”, “What’s Love”, and “Whap!” respectively. Officially released in Summer 2020, they helped to enhance Ragz To Richez Production’s profile as they became some of the year’s biggest singles.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Gem Myers – One Man Woman (1986)


In recognition of Women’s History Month, we take the time out to feature Women who have made great contributions to our music culture. While we celebrate the Women all year over here, we recognize some through our Oldies Sunday section. Today, our selection comes from one of Jamaica’s greatest Vocalists, Gem Myers with her track, “One Man Woman“.

Produced by Fab 5 and released through Stage Records in 1986, Gem Myers makes it clear from the start that she has no time for entertaining conversations from other men, and no time for playing around as she’s a one man woman. No time for intimidation, exploitation, confusion, and the boderation, Gem can only deal with one person, and he is doing what he’s supposed to to keep her happy. In a time when people celebrate having multiple partners or playing games with people’s hearts, Gem is a woman who would be referred to as a “one burner”. “One Man Woman” was a popular single when it was released, and was the first track on her 1987 album of the same name. Since “One Man Woman”, she has went on to release more music before being a staple at various events over the years in Jamaica, the Caribbean, and parts of the world. We truly believe she’s an underrated Vocalist, and she should be celebrated more. We hope our article starts a conversation in the right direction.

thank you gem myers

Gage Calls Out Politicians On “Creed 4”


Recording Artist Gage has never been one to hold his tongue. No matter the topic of his songs, he speaks his mind, and you have to deal with it. Recently, he released the “Barcode Mixtape” with The Riddim Nation, and he had a lot to talk about. On one of the tracks, he hits where it hurts on “Creed 4“.

With The Riddim Nation handling production, Gage calls out the Jamaican Government and shifty Politicians. Looking back at the events during and after Election 2020, Gage exposes the opportunists, highlights the reality many Jamaicans are facing regardless of who is in power, and becomes the speaker of the Jamaican public for a few minutes. It’s not about who had the best campaign Dubplate or who rocked Clarks, it’s what the elected will do for the people who went out and voted for better. Many are not fazed by the gimmicks, they need real work to be done. Take a listen to Gage’s message.
