In a time when dancehall is often defined by trap influences and dark, moody themes, rising producer Pink Monkey offers a refreshing change of pace with his latest juggling project, “Nuh Response Riddim."

Released under his PiNK MONKEY Records (PMR), the 6-track compilation revives the genre’s joyful energy, groove, and lyrical brightness—deliberately steering away from the shadowy tones that have become the norm. “This riddim is about getting back to creativity and good vibes,” said Pink Monkey. “Dancehall is supposed to make you feel something—make you move.”

Inspired by his mentor Rvssian and countless studio hours with collaborators like Kosa, Pink Monkey blends infectious, danceable energy with purposeful lyrical direction.

“Just being around him, watching his work ethic and how he puts the pieces of the puzzle together in the industry, taking his advice seriously,” said Pink Monkey, whose given name is Lebert Henry, as he praised the super producer.

The riddim opens with Fixaveli’s “Nuh Response,” the debut track that inspired the entire project. It’s followed by rising talent RojaeMc’s “Intoxicated,” a feel-good anthem that channels the vibrant, party-after-party spirit dancehall is known for, with an accompanying video set to drop later this month.

Also featured are tracks from emerging female artist Barbie J with “Deserve More,” and rising talent Jay A with “Stop Watch Mi,” which is set for release in the coming weeks.

The riddim is already gaining momentum—earning spins on Westside Radio London, buzzing across TikTok Lives, and receiving co-signs from selectors like DJ RedyFaymus, DJhottablaxx, Badgyal DyDy, DJ Fergie, and DJ Springer.

But beyond the early praise, the Nuh Response Riddim represents something deeper: a reminder that dancehall thrives most when it’s communal, vibrant, and unfiltered.

Henry’s approach, granting artists full creative control, building rollouts collaboratively, and maintaining an organic studio environment, reflects a new kind of producer mindset, one that balances vision with humility. And that might be exactly what dancehall needs right now.

“Let’s get back to good vibes. Let’s bring dancehall back to the top of global plays. Let’s lead again,” Pink Monkey echoed.
