Veterans and Young Lions of Reggae unite on the Generation Gap Riddim, mixed by six-time Grammy award-winning engineer, James “Bonzai” Caruso.
Red A Red Music Group and Maroon Productions present an exciting rebirth of a foundation riddim: The Generation Gap. This era-spanning project features some of Jamaica’s greatest musicians, with vocal cuts by veterans Mutabaruka and Lutan Fyah, as well as emerging talents Imeru Tafari and Autarchii.
Co-produced by Jermaine Joseph, Linton Hinds Jr, and Donovan Joseph, the Generation Gap Riddim takes us back in time and provides a clear look to the future.
The riddim is an up-tempo reimagining of the 1983 classic, ‘2000 Years’, originally recorded by the harmony group Time Unlimited.
True to the Generation Gap concept, two of the co-producers are father and son. Original Time Unlimited lead singer Donovan Joseph hands the mantle to his son Jermaine ‘Autarchii’ Joseph, who reinterprets his father’s ‘2000 Years’ on the riddim.
Further continuity is added by the presence of legendary guitarist Earl Chinna Smith – whose High Times band played the original cut.
