2026-10-24T13:29:52.316+03:00

Reggae icon Macka B and Grammy-winner Jazzwad turn a viral freestyle into an innovative anthem celebrating hydration.

Water merges Macka B’s witty, health-conscious wordplay with Jazzwad’s inventive beats composed entirely around the natural sounds of water.

Following his massively popular viral freestyles, legendary reggae artist Macka B has teamed up with Grammy Award-winning producer and musician Jazzwad to release their highly anticipated new single, Water.

The track brilliantly transforms Macka B’s iconic health-conscious style, famous from his Medical Mondays and Wha Me Eat Wednesdays series, into a unique musical experience.

Speaking on the inspiration behind the track, Macka B states: “Water, without a doubt. One of the most important things you can put in your mouth... Pay your body water, give it a good salary. Hydrate, lose weight, feel great, lubricate."

Jazzwad innovatively composed the instrumental around the rhythmic dripping of water in the studio, creating a beat that perfectly compliments Macka B's unmistakably conscious lyrics. Together, they celebrate water not just as a source of life, but as an energetic and therapeutic force.

Water is out now and making a splash on all streaming platforms.

DAMIAN “JR. GONG” MARLEY BRINGS THE FULL "NO BETTER RIDDIM" TOGETHER WITH STAR-STUDDED REGGAE COMPILATION

2026-10-24T12:45:37.689+03:00

Following a rollout over several months that introduced listeners to a series of individual releases, Ghetto Youths International unveiled the complete No Better Riddim on Friday, October 16.

Produced by Grammy Award-winning artist and producer Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley, the 16-track compilation brings together some of reggae’s most distinctive voices while celebrating Jamaica’s one-riddim or “juggling” tradition. The “juggling” tradition is where multiple artists bring their own lyrics, melodies and perspectives to a shared musical track.

The result is a collection that feels connected without sounding repetitive. Across No Better Riddim, established voices and a new generation of reggae artists explore love, relationships, spirituality, consciousness, resilience and personal reflection, demonstrating the versatility of a single riddim when placed in the hands of different storytellers.

The road to the full compilation began earlier this year with Jemere Morgan’s “Know Better,” the release that introduced the riddim’s warm, melodic foundation. Ghetto Youths International continued to unveil the project piece by piece, allowing individual songs and artists to establish their own identities before bringing the complete body of work together.

Among the songs released ahead of the full project are Romain Virgo’s “Lay My Head,” Alaine’s “Love Again,” Pressure Busspipe’s “So Amazing,” Turbulence’s “Twin Flames,” Ghost’s “Coming Again” and Jaz Elise’s “Don’t Spoil Love.”

With the October 16 release, listeners will now hear the complete vision for the first time, including previously unreleased contributions from Sevana, Chino McGregor, Richie Spice, Medisun, Singing Melody, Da’ville, Zaila Jazz and Queen Omega, before closing with Damian Marley’s instrumental “No Better Riddim (Version).”

A MODERN TAKE ON A JAMAICAN TRADITION

At its core, No Better Riddim celebrates a format that has long been central to reggae and dancehall culture. Rather than having an artist simply appear as a “feature,” each performer is given the same musical foundation and the freedom to build an entirely different song around it.

Damian Marley’s production provides the common thread throughout the compilation, blending roots reggae sensibilities, lovers rock warmth and contemporary influences while leaving enough space for each artist’s individual character to take center stage.

The diversity of the lineup is central to that vision. From veteran voices and internationally recognized reggae artists to members of the genre’s contemporary generation, No Better Riddim creates a meeting point between eras while remaining firmly rooted in Jamaican musical tradition.

The project also reflects Ghetto Youths International’s continued commitment to reggae music built around substance, musicianship and authentic storytelling, while demonstrating how the traditional riddim format can continue to evolve for today’s global audience.
