Bow And Arrow Riddim – Push Hitz Records

Push Hitz Records’ Bow And Arrow Riddim sits in that mid-2010s run of lean, hard-edged dancehall from the label, with Sandre Ennis and Desmond Hepburn framing it as part of their “Rise To The Occasion” push in 2015. The cut list is short and focused, and that suits the riddim’s mission: no excess, just five voices riding the same instrumental and keeping the energy tight. Mega C’s “Bare Bullet” gives it a sharp opening, while Tata Blacks on “Gal Ah Run Mi Down” and Lady Genius on “Nah Stop Try” bring the kind of straight-ahead, streetwise patter that lets the rhythm do the talking. Merchant’s “Everything” and J-Asha’s “My Princess” keep the sequencing balanced, so the whole thing moves like a compact producer showcase rather than a sprawling compilation.
