4. Promiscuous
When ZJ Dymond dropped the Promiscuous riddim back in February I instantly knew it would be a big one for 2014 with its infectious synths, rolling beat and slack lyric topics. Demarco’s “Bad Gyal Anthem” is arguably the biggest chune on the riddim but the offerings from Gage and Kalado definitely helped solidify their place as rising stars in dancehall this year. As the riddim grew bigger, Vybz Kartel jumped on the version in June with “Pretty Position” – proving Promiscuous to be pure dancehall fiyah. – DJ Arems
