Coming out of Jamaica in 2011, Blue Skies Riddim from UPT 007 Records gathers a neat cross-section of singers and deejays that sits firmly in roots-conscious reggae while still keeping a contemporary edge. The lineup moves from Capleton’s charged “Girls Ready Now” and Gyptian’s smoother “True Blessings” through the meditative turn of Ginjah’s “After Jah, ” with Lutan Fyah’s “Rasta” giving the set its clearest militant center. Around them, Natural Black, Warrior King, Supa Hype, and Chi Ching Ching keep the energy shifting between heartfelt uplift, social commentary, and a lighter party-ready swing. With 12 tracks and no wasted space, the riddim feels like a snapshot of that era’s reggae circle, where conscious lyrics and memorable hooks were still carrying equal weight.
