Trending dancehall artist Chronic Law has just shared the official lyric video for his single – Things Inside – featured on the brand new dancehall juggling, Things & Time Riddim. On the record, the hardcore deejay laments on his internal conflicts, as he tries to balance the success he has achieved as a recording artist, and the problems he is having because of it. He sings: “and mi say things inside weh a destroy all a mi vibe – things inside mek me paranoid all a the time.”
The Things & Time Riddim is an eight-track compilation, produced by emerging music label Pandemic Records. In addition to Chronic Law, it also has new music by Ikaya, Takeova, Jah Lama, Little Hero, Frass Khalifa, Xip Boss, and Pandemic‘s co-founder Sheldon Edwards.
As the name implies, Pandemic Records was established during the epidemic caused by the covid-19 virus. It is owned and operated by brothers Sheldon and Leroy Edwards, both of whom are still celebrating the recently held #1 spot on Richie B’s Reggae Chart for Little Hero‘s World Right Now. That song is on the Logic Riddim, which was also produced by Pandemic Records.
Things & Time Riddim went live on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and all other streaming platforms on January 20, 2023. Download your copy today!

Belizean reggae artist Nego Hights, who is now residing in the United States, is determined to Go Harder this year! He made that decision after his near death experience with covid-19 in 2020. According to the singer: “I had to give up music for the better part of 2 years and at one point was told by the Doctors that I might not be able to perform any more. After surgery and breathing issues I decided that I will perform again and started telling my self I have to go harder than before to get back and surpass where I was in 2020 before I got sick.”
After making that decision, Hights wrote Go Harder. And with the help of producer Wadadah II, he arranged and mixed the single, which is now #2 on DJ Kat’s Top 5 (UK). The production was done at DOVE Muzik Studio in Evanston, Illinois (United States). Nego Hights and the team at DOVE Muzik report that Go Harder is making a lot of noise in parts of West Africa, the U.S. and the U.K. It is also considered a hit on social media.
Hights responded to its rapid success by saying: “I would like for this song to bring out the best in the listeners, this song is all about you being your biggest fan, cheerleader, believer and supporter and I pray it will encourage and motivate the listeners to Go Harder for their goals no matter what.”
