3. QQ & Venomous – “One Drop”
This was arguably the largest party song in Jamaica in 2013, with nonstop radio play and constant forwards in the dance. Prior to this gigantic reinvention we hadn’t heard much QQ since his debut as a youth with “Poverty” over the Nyabhingi drums of the riddim from Gyptian’s “Serious Times,” and his catchy dance tune followup hit, “Stookie.” It’s strangely fitting to see QQ back nearly a decade later with an X-rated dancing tune that has given a whole new meaning to the term “One Drop.” —Deejay Theory
