Pull Up: Fever Pitch Riddim

Here is a sure shot riddim for the summer: Fever Pitch, one that is sure to make sweaty clubs go nuts. On this post, we'll explore some of the top cuts on the Fever Pitch Riddims for your summertime riddim running fun.

One of the first cuts on Fever Pitch is Bunny General's 'Full Up a Class' first appearing on 12" in 1992. This pivotal cut is overshadowed by a huge hit on the Fever Pitch in 1993: 'Limb by Limb' by Cutty Ranks, one of the biggest dancehall cuts from the 90s altogether. On his album 'Wickedness Increase', General Levy also rode the riddim in 1993 on his track 'Champagne Body' (a hit on its own). In 1994, the Fever Pitch was heavily adopted for "girl tracks". Among them is Janet Lee Davis' 'I Will Always Love You', Sweet Tea's 'Breathe Again', and Louchie Lou and Michie One's gigantic hit single 'If I was a Rich Girl'. 'If I was a Rich Girl' was loosely based on the 'Fiddler on the Roof' showtune 'If I Were a Rich Man' and was resurrected by Dr. Dre in 2004 for Gwen Stefani and Eve's single 'Rich Girl.
