Work Out Riddim – Di Genius Production

A tight six-cut version with raw and edit pairings, Work Out Riddim leans on a sharp little frontline: Mavado’s “Ina Di Car Back, ” Vybz Kartel’s “Work Out, ” and Black Ryno’s “Bend Over” give the set most of its pull, while Bramma, Fambo, and Esco keep the pressure moving. Di Genius put it out in 2008, right when Stephen McGregor was already turning heads as one of dancehall’s young hitmakers, and you can hear that confidence in the way the rhythm stays lean and punchy rather than overcrowded. The sequencing is straight to the point too, lining up each raw cut with its clean version so the focus stays on the riddim and the different ways each artist rides it.
