About

Genius Annotation

This is Popcaan’s version of the Summertime Riddim, produced by Swedish producer Adde, that was released by Adidjahiem/NotNice Records in 2011. Vybz Kartel, Sheba, and Gaza Slim also have versions of this riddim, but Popcaan eclipses them all. This song earned him the nickname of “Ravin King”. This is Popcaan’s first single after appearing with Vybz Kartel and Gaza Slim on the hit “Clarks”, and propelled him to further success. He followed this hit up with “Party Shot” on the Smudge Riddim as well as the hit “Only Man She Want” (which put him on the Billboards R&B/Hip-Hop). “Ravin” was also successful, albeit more locally, as Popcaan won “Favorite Summer Song” & “Local Chart-Topping Song of the Year” at the Youth View Awards in Jamaica.
