SATURDAY, February 24th, join us for the incredible music that unites us, only at RIDDIMS at Saint-EX DC
IT'S BLACK HISTORY MONTH AND WE'RE PAYING HOMAGE TO THE MUSICIANS THAT HAVE CHANGED MUSIC FOREVER!
Dancehall emerged as more than just a musical genre; it became a powerful form of expression and liberation from oppression. Its roots lie in the socio-political landscape of Jamaica, where marginalized communities found solidarity in the rhythms that echoed their daily struggles. In the face of systemic oppression, dancehall provided a voice to the marginalized, empowering them to reclaim their identity and assert their existence in a world that often overlooked their struggles. It became a cultural phenomenon, not just in Jamaica but across the globe, inspiring countless individuals to embrace their heritage and speak truth to power through the universal language of music and dance.
SOUNDS BY:
DANCEHALL • AFRO-BEATS • AMAPIANO • HIP-HOP • SOCA • REGGAE
We're here because the music taking over your spirit, and the wave of energy flowing through the room was all too much to ignore. It's all about the music... Since 2018, RIDDIMS has been a unique monthly dance party that sonically pays homage to the AFRICAN DIASPORA of music that has played a significant role in cultivating the sound of today. Drink specials and authentic Jamaican snacks by the good folks at SAINT-EX, great times curated by EVERY ROSE, and great energy by you, the RIDDIMS family!
