Ghetto Youths International releases ‘No Better Riddim’ produced by Damian Marley
Alaine and Pressure Busspipe join the reggae juggling project, which builds on Jemere Morgan’s single “Know Better”.
NEW YORK, United States. Ghetto Youths International, the independent label founded by Stephen, Damian and Julian Marley, has launched “No Better Riddim”, a reggae compilation and juggling project produced by Grammy Award-winning musician Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley.
The project follows the release of Jemere Morgan’s single “Know Better”.
“Built around the same musical foundation as Jemere Morgan’s acclaimed single, the ‘No Better Riddim’ embraces the rich Jamaican tradition of juggling projects, bringing together multiple artists to interpret the same riddim through their own unique stories, melodies and perspectives,” Brooklyn-based, Jamaican-born publicist Ronnie Tomlinson told Caribbean Life on Monday, June 15.
Ms Tomlinson, chief executive of Destine Media, said the project serves as both a standalone compilation and an extension of the original single’s campaign.
Alaine and Pressure
The latest additions come from two of reggae’s best-known voices. Alaine returns with “Love Again”, a ballad produced by Damian Marley that Ms Tomlinson said explores “the endurance and transformative power of true love over a warm modern one-drop reggae groove.”
She said the track delivers the “signature blend of romance, melody, and authenticity that has made Alaine a favorite among reggae audiences worldwide.”
Pressure Busspipe contributes “So Amazing”. Known for blending roots reggae with lovers rock, he serenades listeners in his “unmistakable style, reminiscent of fan favorites such as ‘Love and Affection,’” Ms Tomlinson said.
Rolling release
“Blending contemporary reggae, lovers rock, and R&B influences, the compilation is designed to connect with multiple generations of listeners across the Caribbean and around the world,” she said.
The full compilation will continue to roll out through June 2026, “further expanding the project’s reach across streaming platforms, radio, selector culture, and reggae communities worldwide,” she added.
