About rootdownrec

Rootdown Records is a reggae, dancehall and soul label that has operated since 2000 and runs a YouTube channel created in 2006. The channel posts official music videos, riddim release videos, shoutouts and live sessions for artists including Jaqee, Maxim, Mono and Nikitaman and Teka. It has about 14,600 subscribers and roughly 22.6 million lifetime views.

The channel has been inactive for upload purposes since its last video, so its current reach is best treated as a legacy catalogue. Based on the content language and artist base, the estimated audience is mainly German and English-speaking listeners interested in reggae and dancehall, though this is an estimate from the dossier rather than channel analytics.

Brand work on the channel is limited to music promotion and links to streaming stores. At an estimated $150 to $250 per sponsored video, the rate sits below typical paid ad CPM benchmarks of $10 to $30, which makes it more suitable for music and audio brands seeking niche reggae reach than for broad campaigns.
