3rd Degree Riddim (2003) – Mark Of The West

2003 dancehall riddim 3rd Degree – Mark Of The West brings together a tight mix of mid-2000s voices and deejay flair, with Alozade and Skyas, Calico, De Ja Vu, Determine (F Dasia), Farenheit, Kid Kurup, Lukie D, Powerman and Ninja Kid, Sizzla, and Tanto Marijuana across its run. The set leans into lovers-and-toast themes rather than one-note patois comedy, which is a big part of how tracks like Sizzla’s Sexual Healing and Lukie D’s More Girls land so naturally against the riddim’s rhythm. Mark Of The West’s production is consistent and forward, giving each selector room to stretch their delivery from Wicked-style energy through to the more romantic cuts like Loving You.
