Destination Rock Riddim – Silvatone Records

Silvatone Records’ Destination Rock Riddim lands in 2013 with a roots-conscious sweep that keeps the arrangements grounded while giving the singers room to stretch out. Anthony B’s “Right Now” and Chezidek’s “We Weren’t Born to Follow” carry the kind of uplift and edge you’d expect from both artists, while Little Hero’s “More Love” and the Lorna Asher/Wayne Lyrics pairing on “Black Woman” add a warmer, more reflective touch. The set runs 14 cuts deep, with 13 different voices across the board, so it moves like a proper showcase rather than a single-artist statement. For Silvatone, it sits neatly among their early-2010s reggae work: polished, message-driven, and built for selectors who like a riddim with enough lift to keep the whole sequence moving.
