The “137 Street Riddim” medley music video was uploaded to Richie Spice’s official YouTube channel on September 4, 2026.

Directed by Shervel Thesheep, the video features Richie Spice, Turbulence, Lolaa Smiles, Jah Melody, and Chezidek, with each artist performing his or her respective song in a different location. The production uses seamless transitions, mixing each clip into the next in a style reminiscent of a selector blending records during a reggae session.

The medley features Richie Spice’s “Lately,” Turbulence’s “Wilderness,” Lolaa Smiles’ “Real Love,” Jah Melody’s “Need You To Know,” and Chezidek’s “Dem Can’t Stop It.” Lutan Fyah’s “She Don’t Want To Leave” is also part of the 137 Street Riddim lineup, although he does not appear in the video. The riddim is a Brownz Records production, with individual songs released separately rather than as a single compilation project.
