Airplay Riddim – Various Artists

AIRPLAY RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2008

Airplay Riddim keeps things tight with just three names across six cuts, so the focus stays on the songs rather than any big all-star roll call. Blak Ryno’s “She Link Mi” and Shawn Storm’s “Sneak Out” both come in clean and raw versions, which gives the set that late-2000s dancehall feel where the radio-friendly take sits right beside the harsher version for the dances. Earthworm’s “When Mi And Mi Gyal” adds a lighter, more flirtatious note in the middle, but it’s the Blak Ryno and Shawn Storm tunes that feel like the ones built to move a sound system. Released in 2008, the riddim lands right in that era when compact, no-filler juggling plates were doing serious work in the dancehall.
