The Hill & Gully riddim from @digenius1 has brought Jamaican folk music back to the centre of dancehall conversation 🌍🔥 One of the many things I love about Jamaican music is the way these threads never really disappear. Hill and Gully Ride has been reworked and reversioned continuously for over 70 years, moving from mento and ska into rocksteady and reggae, and through multiple eras of dancehall 🇯🇲🪇🪕 Each successive generation of Jamaican artists has found new ways to carry forward this piece of musical history, reinterpreting it in the latest style. From Lord Composer in 1954 to Busy Signal in 2014, via Duke Reid, The Skatalites, I Roy, Yellowman, Johnny Osbourne, Ini Kamoze, and Elephant Man 💚💛🖤 Mento and Jamaican folk songs aren't just the roots of reggae and dancehall, they have remained part of the music the whole time 💫🔙 What's your favourite version of Hill and Gully Ride? 👀🤔 Dancers ✨ 💃🏾 @creativesrights Dinki Mini tutorial 💃🏿💃🏽💃🏾 @officialmasicka video for Slip & Slide Music 🎶 🔊 Hill & Gully Riddim - Stephen 'Di Genius' McGregor (2026) 🎵 Hill and Gully Ride - Lord Composer (Motta's Recording Studio, 1954) 🔊 Hill & Gully Ride - Duke Reid & Tommy McCook @skatalites (Treasure Isle, 1964) 🎵 Hilly and Gully Rider - Alva 'Reggie' Lewis (1968) 🔊 Hill and Gully - I Roy (Virgin Records, 1979) 🎵 Hill & Gully Rider - Yellowman (Volcano, 1983) 🔊 Hill & Gully - Johnny Osbourne (Power House, 1987) 🎵 Hill and Gully Ride - Ini Kamoze (9 Sounds Klik, 1995) 🔊 Hill & Gully Ride @elephantmanja @mrgakagoofy1 (Young Blood Records, 2002) 🎵 Hill & Gully Ride @busysignal_turf (First Name Music, 2014) - @gabrielheatwave
