Black Star Riddim – The Handcart Market

Black Star Riddim moves with a warm, mid-tempo reggae sway that leaves plenty of room for the vocals to breathe. The Handcart Market keeps the rhythm uncluttered and rootical, and that steady pulse gives Janett Tafari’s “My Girl” a tender edge while Gab T’s “One Children” and Joggo’s “Jah Jah Descendent” lean into conscious, uplift-minded territory. Ophelie’s “Let It Rain” adds a softer, reflective note, and Tox closes the vocal run with “Red Moon, ” a darker, moodier cut that gives the set some contrast. Released in 2015, the project sits comfortably in that period when one-riddim reggae releases were still leaning on live-feeling arrangements and message songs rather than heavy studio gloss.
