Cant Stop Us Now Riddim – Thompson Sound

Barrington Levy anchors Thompson Sound’s 2004 Can’t Stop Us Now Riddim, and his pair of cuts, “Jah Help Us” and “Sensimilla, ” set the tone for a lineup that also leans on heavyweight roots voices like Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs, Johnny Clarke, Junior Reid, Don Carlos and Eek-A-Mouse. The sequence keeps circling back to themes of Africa, pressure and spiritual uplift, with the riddim carrying that late-era roots feel rather than anything overly polished; Freddie McGregor’s “Jah Help The People” and Johnny Osbourne’s “Night Fall” sit alongside the more familiar names and give the set a wider sweep. Issued as a 20-track various-artists project, it includes 19 unique artists and closes with Wayne Wade’s “Poor And Humble. ”
