Magnum Queen of the Dancehall, Tiki, is at the forefront of producer Scatta's new captivating 'Hindu' rhythm.

Scatta said the female deejay, who is signed to his label Outaroad Records, did a song called Tiki Wine on the rhythm.

"She is signed to my label so at the moment, I am making her a priority of any venture that I am doing," Scatta told THE STAR.

"She record it (the song) like that. The song drop in at the ideal time and she have the little wining thing going," he said.

Tiki says she is currently endorsing her song Tiki Wine. She said she had enjoyed working on the rhythm and it complemented her song.

Scatta said the rhythm was created about three weeks ago by him, his engineer, Shady, and his friend, Purple, who is from India. Scatta said he had the general idea of the type of rhythm that he wanted to do, but Purple provided the Indian flavour. With Jamaican and Indian expertise, the 'Hindu' rhythm was finished in one hour on a Sunday afternoon.

But there are other contestants who entered the Magnum Kings and Queens of the Dancehall competition, who are on the rhythm. Rage did Hindu while Tanto Blacks did Ticklish.

In reference to Tanto Blacks' song, Scatta said: "It fit the rhythm like a glove, so we hope him get the justice 'cause is really a humble youth."

There are other established artistes on the rhythm, like Degree and Elephant Man. Scatta said Elephant Man did not hesitate to voice his Belly Dance song on the rhythm as he got Billboard success from Scatta's 'Coolie Dance' rhythm with his song Jook Gal.

But Scatta said he would not be focusing on recording the big artistes just yet.

"I don't record many big artistes on it yet 'cause I want the young artistes to get some glory off it first. And me really want to try with a female now," Scatta told THE STAR.

In the coming weeks, he will be recording with other top artistes. And he plans to keep on recording new songs on it so that the rhythm will have longevity.

In the meantime, Scatta says the rhythm has been getting some level of airplay. In a few weeks, he also plans to do other promotional work on the rhythm overseas.

As for Tiki, Scatta said the video shoot of her song No Gal Nuh Hotter Than Me was scheduled to begin on Monday. Tiki is also booked for a show in Canada on June 23.
