2. Happy Hour
Chimney Records’ Happy Hour riddim has picked up a lot of steam since its September release, boasting what is now arguably the biggest dancing tune as 2014 turns over. Chi Ching Ching and Popcaan’s “Way Up” has become a massive tune on it’s own, not to mention the compulsory rewind on the remix featuring Beenie Man. Happy Hour has the summer pacing and staying power to be as much a part of your (next) summer as a Gosling’s & Ginger. Vybz comes tough with “Mi Nuh Trush People,” as does Beenie on his solo tune “Badmind People,” and there’s some great cuts from Mavado, Serani and Alkaline. – DJ Tanner
