Bost & Bim are a French dancehall reggae production duo, comprising Matthieu Bost and Jérémie Dessus. The duo has worked with the biggest Jamaican and European reggae artists such as Capleton, Morgan Heritage, Sizzla, Gentleman, and Admiral T.
Both of them debuted in the early 1990s, respectively as saxophonist and guitarist in many bands, and they still play on tour with many Jamaican and European artists. Since 1999, Bost & Bim were established as record producers, and following the work on international line up riddims (with the label Special Delivery Music, and with their own label The Bombist), and many collaborations on albums from others artists.
They also collaborated with Brisa Roché and Lone Ranger to release the song "Jamaican Boy", an early-reggae cover of Estelle's "American Boy". It was played in the honour of Usain Bolt at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, just after his 100m victory at the 2009 World Championships.
In 2016, Morgan Heritage wins the Best Reggae Album Grammy Awards with Strictly Roots where two tracks (Rise And Fall and Wanna Be Loved) were written by Bost & Bim.
