Crush Time Riddim – Frassout / Raggedy Production

Dwayno’s “War Nuh Verbal” is the first cut that really grabs you here, cutting straight into the sort of chest-out, talk-back dancehall energy that gives Crush Time Riddim its edge. Frassout and Raggedy keep the juggling tight and gritty, and the best moments come when voices like Gaza Maxwell on “Bad Nuh Claat” and Toppa Bling on “We Nuh Frighten” lock into that stern, no-nonsense groove. There’s a quick bit of contrast too, with Flash Raggedy’s “Ever Up” sitting a little more melodic against the harder chants, which helps the whole set move without losing pressure. Released in August 2012, the package runs nine tracks deep and closes on the instrumental, just long enough to let that raw riddim breathe.
