Chronicles Of A Woman Riddim – Ygf Records

YGF Records had already been threading these “Chronicles” projects through 2016, and Chronicles Of A Woman sits right in that run with a sharper, more conversational dancehall vibe. The label’s own angle was clear enough: songs about women’s lives, women’s bodies, and the push and pull around relationships, which gives tracks like Devin Di Dakta’s “Sekkle Dung” and Khago’s “Gyal Yuh Body Good” a direct, cheeky edge. Jahvillani’s “Fi Di Gyal Dem” keeps the energy pointed at the ladies too, while Zamunda and Vershon’s “Too Old To Die Young” leans into the more reflective side of the set. It’s a compact nine-track juggling with raw and clean versions folded in, and the whole thing landed in mid-2016, just after YGF had been building momentum with the earlier Chronicles Of Success releases.
