2Cuz Production presents “Diff-Er-Ent Riddim”

2Cuz Production is proud to announce the official release of “Diff-Er-Ent Riddim,” a soul-stirring seven-track reggae compilation that showcases the versatility of some of the genre’s most respected voices. Now available on all major streaming platforms as of January 30, 2026, the compilation features an elite lineup including Busy Signal, Capleton, Mia Taylor, Darrio, Qraig Voicemail, and Jah Thunder.

A standout moment on the project comes from dancehall veteran BusySignal, who reveals a more melodic, roots side of his artistry on the track “Horizon.” The song serves as a powerful tribute of love and appreciation for the Most High, marking a distinct departure from his typical high-energy style. Complementing this spiritual energy is the legendary Capleton, who delivers the defiant and uplifting “My Shine,” a track centered on his unstoppable spirit and resilience.

The compilation also delves deeply into the theme of love through various lenses. Qraig Voicemail offers the romantic “Love of a Lifetime,” a dedicated serenade to his partner, while Mia Taylor captures the ache of longing in her soulful contribution, “Missing You.”Darrio adds to the melodic charm of the album with “Take It Slow,” a smooth love song that perfectly matches the rhythm’s steady pace. Expanding on the concept of affection, Jah Thunder’s “Found Love” explores the multifaceted nature of devotion, addressing both romantic partners and spiritual faith.

In addition to the vocal performances, 2Cuz Production has included the “Diff-Er-Ent Riddim” instrumental as a standalone track, allowing listeners to fully appreciate the craftsmanship behind the production. The full compilation is currently available for streaming and download worldwide.

Luciano and Aaron Splendid Celebrate Lifelong Brotherhood on New Single “Friends Forever”

Renowned reggae icon Luciano and emerging roots singer Aaron Splendid have come together for a powerful new collaborative single titled Friends Forever, officially released on all major streaming platforms on February 1, 2026.

As the title suggests, Friends Forever is about a lifelong friendship that has stood the test of time. Aaron Splendid and Luciano have known each other since their early years, long before Luciano rose to international acclaim as one of reggae’s most respected voices. Despite Luciano’s global success and decades-long career as a leading figure in conscious reggae, the bond between the two artists has remained strong, rooted in mutual respect and loyalty.

The production of Friends Forever carries its own compelling backstory. The song’s original rhythm was created by Jermaine Gordon, also known as Star Social, an accomplished producer and artist. However, when it came time to mix the track, the original rhythm files could not be located. Determined to preserve the project, Aaron Splendid enlisted Lamar Thompson of Audiotraxx Productions, who reconstructed a new rhythm layered over the original foundation before completing the mixing and mastering process. 

Friends Forever was released on So Splendid Records, Aaron Splendid’s independent label, and was distributed by Maria Jackson 27, ensuring worldwide availability across all digital music platforms.
