The power of Vaughn’s song influenced the title of the release, along with an earlier iteration on Tuff Lion’s instrumental album , “Ten Strings” called “Yad Along” released in 2008. The riddim laid dormant for a while until it was revisited for up and coming reggae great, Marcus Gad’s album “Rhythm of Serenity” (2020) produced by Zion I Kings. Once it was unearthed and revitalized for Marcus, Zion I Kings key member Drew Keys took hold of it and put down the majestic trombone parts, icing the deep roots cake. It was only a matter of time before the track found it’s way to ZIK, brother in arms- Lutan Fyah, who keeps it real on his rootsy meditation on the power of silence in “Talk Talk Talk”.
Yad On Riddim hits hard in the most pleasant way, with a signature Virgin Islands feel made famous by artists like Midnite, Bamboo Station and Dezarie. Boasting a laid back lean on the drums, performed by VI native drummer, T-Rock accompanied by deep, minimal baseline and a sweet major , minor chord progression that pulls out feelings of nostalgia and renewed energy, all at once. This track has a timeless feel and it’s undoubted fans of Midnite, Akae Beka, Marcus Gad and Lutan will be soulfully satiated with this latest offering from Zion I Kings.
