Vybz Kartel Gyptian Top 10 Reggae/Dancehall Songs Of 2010

The year 2010 was off to a slow start in dancehall, with many thinking that it could be one of the worse years in dancehall history. But as the year went by, a slew of mega hit singles emerged that rescue the genre from the stronghold of the recession.

From Gyptian’s Hold Yuh to Vybz Kartel’s Clarks, they all made a huge impact on music and popular culture worldwide, not just at home in Jamaica. Dancehall music is very intriguing, just when you think its dying a slow and painful death, a couple songs emerge to take the world by storm.

Undeniably, 2010 was a trying year for dancehall, but turned out to be one of the greatest years in the history of the genre.

As usual, when the year ends you will find several articles about the year in review and top dancehall/reggae songs and more. But Urban Islandz brings to you the best of everything reggae and dancehall.

The Urban Islandz top 10 biggest reggae/dancehall songs of 2010 was compiled through extensive research on the impact of each song globally and locally in Jamaica during 2010. There will be several songs that could have made the list but didn’t because of one or many factors such as, strong presence in Jamaica, but not so much globally, or vice versa.

We take into consideration, airplay on radio and television, impact online, impact in dancehall sessions and clubs and also sales. So you will find that a song is very popular in dancehall session and in clubs but still didn’t make the list because sales was weak, radio play wasn’t enough or Youtube and Facebook video views was low.

Now that we clear that up lets get down to business. We will start from 10 down to number 1.

Have fun and leave your feedback
