Why aren't Jamaican Dancehall artists blowing up like spanish reggaeton artists have the past year?

Haven't heard a groundbreaking riddim in several years. The overproof riddim the last one which came to mind.

Imo lack of "authentic" riddims and the homophobia hurt the crossover appeal.

I remember when I'm so special was bubbling then Mavado dropped that wack ass video :gucci:

Reggaeton? :mjlol:This shyt aint dead yet?

But modern dancehall sucks. It's too electronic for my taste. Sound more like a fusion genre today.

It's like they are making the music to cater to another audience.:mjpls:
