Block and Cement Riddim – Bellevue Entertainment

Bellevue Entertainment lines up a dozen cuts on Block and Cement Riddim, and the roster has that late-2010s dancehall feel where a few names keep circling back in different versions. Drizzy Fade, Fyah Bigz, Posh Morris and Nazz Genna all get doubles with clean and raw takes, while Iyara’s “Pissed Off” and Jeffrey Mykals’ “Yu Fi Glad” help keep the selection from feeling too samey. The production is spare and hard-edged, with the kind of streetwise pulse that leaves space for the vocals to carry the attitude; the instrumental at the end makes that plain. It’s a 2019 riddim built for force more than flourish, riding a steady, weighty bass line and a clipped drum pattern that keeps the whole thing moving at a mid-tempo bashment pace.
