Jammy's Yard

Jammy's yard on St. Lucia Road was King Jammy's home studio and community hub — ground zero for the digital riddim revolution where Sleng Teng and hundreds of follow-up productions were voiced and tested.

Why it matters: Jammy's yard symbolises producer-as-neighbourhood-institution. The shift from band track to keyboard riddim happened in domestic spaces as much as commercial facilities, reshaping who could produce hits.
