Detonator Riddim – Lifetime Records

Came out of Jamaica in 2010 with that sharp, streetwise dancehall pulse you’d expect from the year’s harder juggling sides, Detonator Riddim gathered a sturdy cast around Lifetime Records and producer Columbian. The cut that catches the ear first is Bounty Killer’s “Wi Got It, ” which sits comfortably alongside Busy Signal’s “Dont Mek It Slip Out” and Bling Dawg’s “Movements, ” all riding the same tight, percussive groove without crowding each other. There’s a nice contrast too in the opening Bloods combination from Andrew Blood and Wada Blood, which gives the riddim an early jolt before the bigger names step in. Even the later selections, like Lutan Fyah and Natural Blacks, keep the energy moving, and the extra Wayne Marshall pairing at the end feels like a little bonus tacked on after the main run.
