WELL FROM MY PERSPECTIVE RIDDIMS ON A HOLE NOW IN TERMS OF CREATIVITY AND SOUND AS DRAMATICALLY DECREASED. BUT PERTAINING TO THE QUESTION ASKED I WOULD SAY THAT IT AS BEEN FLUCTUATING !!!
TELL DI TRUTH MAN....NOTHING NAH GWAAN FI STEPHEN AGAIN FROM DAT
LMFAO...every riddim stephen build without voicing vybz kartel sound like %&%*...and d riddims wha stephen build fi chrome dat feature kartel sell awfffffffff, no lie
actually for some reason if ah riddim was built by stephen & it dont feature kartel, i dont/barely play it. not cause of spite/hate, cause truely kartel actually makes a riddim sound betta wit his vibes on it
funny ting is dat im not even ah big kartel fan
stephen grow up & kartel stop yuh F***ry.....stop gangsta producers for royalties/copyrights of yuh songs when voiced on riddims. Bigship/Adidjaheim Records cant work lmfaooo. low d yute kartel, stop try program d man tingz dem lol
yea so stephen i kno u pree off d blogs/forum tings dem...yuh riddims nah last long without ah kartel on it, ah lie? lolol, besides if it get play only 3 tracks gettin juggle (outside jamaica)
and u my friend are just another cheerleader. success doesnt equal in creativity and vice versa. ppl like rihanna or lady gaga are selling millions without being creative. as for busy: im not saying he is the best, cuz thats a subjective opinion. but referring to style, rhymes, flow and pattern he IS more creative and versatile than kartel AT THE MOMENT. listen opera and tell me when last kartel did a tune like that. or listen to busy latino. or gal bounce. kartel probably could stand up to that easily but still he prefers making singsang tunes for teenage girls. with great success and hype indeed, but that wasnt the question.
Your missing my point entirely. What other Dancehall artist do you know is more creative, innovative and influence in Dancehall than Kartel? Name at least one. And yes you're right. You don't have to be creative to be successful in Dancehall. All you need is hype, fruity loops and stolen Timberland beats to be big as Stephen. Year and Busy is much, much more versitile than Kartel... with other peoples songs, not his.
influential goes to kartel. creative and innovative to busy. btw i never said doing cover versions would be a bad thing, thats for sure an important part of reggae music. but the busy tunes i named are not cover versions.
You kidding me? Lately I don't know the difference between Elephant man and Busy Signal. With Busy the ORIGINALITY isn't there anymore. All of Busy signals hits are big, big cheap rip offs from old hits songs and/ lyrics.... Yes Kartel is repetitive, is ugly, is evil, is crazy, is bleaching, is a pain in the butt to dancehall fans. But guess what???? He's still here, making hit's, always changing he's own UNIQUE STYLE and still out classes all other DJ's whether you like it or not. And who said that I'm a fan of Kartel? It's just basic common sense, which is uncommonly rear for some people here.

Plain and simple. I don't know why some of you people are so defensive in the matter. First non bias answer for the year.
You kidding me? Lately I don't know the difference between Elephant man and Busy Signal.
if u cant hear the difference between these two, u shouldnt argue about music at all.
With Busy the ORIGINALITY isn't there anymore. All of Busy signals hits are big, big cheap rip offs from old hits songs and/ lyrics....
i wasnt talking about his hits or whatever u call his hits, but about specific tunes, that clarify whats my understanding of creativity and versatility. busy made a couple of cover tunes, when he parted from vp so whats the big deal?
Yes Kartel is repetitive, is ugly, is evil, is crazy, is bleaching, is a pain in the butt to dancehall fans.
repetitive...right. the rest... i dont care. i passed that age, when i searched for personal heroes.
But guess what???? He's still here, making hit's,
right
always changing he's own UNIQUE STYLE
last time he changed his style was in 2007 when he practically buried kartel the deejay and created kartel the singjay.
and still out classes all other DJ's whether you like it or not.
referring to what? success? yes! hype? yes! lyrical, topical and stylistic versatility? no!
And who said that I'm a fan of Kartel?
ur attitude makes that pretty clear.
It's just basic common sense,
common sense would be to make an objective judgement. for example: i personally like many of mavado's tunes, but i still admit that he is repetitive and unoriginal just like kartel or most of the others.
well datboy and gamepun u both ave a point ok,u guyz knw ur music dats gud,dat question yo so many answers to dat trust mi,i dnt knw if is true him turn artiste now but i cant say him still ave a ting,whether kartel is there are not,zeen!!!!
ITS JUST MUSIC AND A JUST MUSIC MI SEH!!!!!!!
IT CANT GET BORED TO HIM>>I DONT THINK SO.........
simple gayza fan dem will always say yes cuh dem wah credit the worst artist in dancehall history as a king....genius never drop cuz of kartel music....u can also say kartel chune get lamer since him tap voice fi genius.... WHICH KARTEL SONGS RIGHT NOW BETTER THAN D CHUNE HIM VOICE FI GENIUS?? GENIUS MAKE KARTEL...WITHOUT DEM RIDDIM DEM AND D LIKKLE WAR WID VADO KARTEL WOULDA DIE OUT CUH STREETSIDE HIM USE TO SING WID HIM GAZA FUQERY GUH LEARN SUPM
Actually your one of the few pple on zone that wen u comment, a sensible discussion can come out of it and we are all biased in one way or another.
but the reason y i ask this question is because di genius has the winnings riddim and chrome has the dancehall EFX coming out soon and i can almost guarantee that chrome's riddim ganna get the most attention and i highly doubt cause he plays on the radio.
I remember two years ago when Stephen and that hype usually sounds it just because its produced by the di genius
but i gurantee that genius a guh mek chrome riddim......so who wins at the end of the day?.......genius
HIM RIDDIM DEM STILL SOUND GOOD BUT FI REAL BUT DEM NAH GET THE FOWARD LIKE DEM USE TO GET LIKE WHEN ADDI USE TO VOICE FI HIM STILL PLAIN AND STRAIGHT
the riddim dem are good but just dont have the hype or engery like before when Kartel was on them
it's the same ting with Desca but like some one said Genius still the top produce yr in & yr out but him time so up if russian or Don start get the same artsit dem voice there Camp like Genius , Big ship will sink faster
I personal think most DJ's/artist respect BIg Ship Camp that why dem doing so Good

mi get wah u a seh but the ignorant part of the dancehall fanbase(most of it) wont see it like that--even if steven is still as good they will make it look differently
