The Early Bird Riddim will deliver six singles to music lovers and with finalmixing and mastering of the production done by none other thanSherrif- the producer of Bunji Garlin’s Differentology, Ryan says he’s absolutely sure that those who listen will enjoy every song on the riddim.

Ryan’s pride for this latest production and each single that will be released is two fold as not only is he the executive producer of theriddim but he also gets partial songwriter’s credit for each of the sixsongs. Together with Patrice Millien of A Millien Concepts, Ryan penned each of the singles. Both he and Patrice conceptualized and administered the project, from the selection of StarBluEntertainment’s ingenious musical composition, to the composition and production of the single, artiste selection and now, the subsequent marketing and promotional strategies that will be employed in presenting the riddim. Super Jigga TC’s song is called ‘All I Want’ and in recent Twitter posts, the artiste expressed his excitement for the big unveiling in the days ahead.
