Di Creature Riddim – Anju Blaxx / Uim Records

Anju Blaxx’s Di Creature Riddim arrived in 2013 on UIM Records, the Uptempo Internation Music imprint he runs under his own name, and it sits right in the run of hard-edged early-2010s dancehall projects he was pushing out at the time. The rhythm has that grimy, street-level pressure Anju Blaxx was known for, with a stripped-back instrumental feel that leaves plenty of room for the deejays to cut through.

Tommy Lee Sparta is the center of gravity here. His Di Creature cut comes in both raw and radio versions, and it is the most defining voice on the juggling: dark, aggressive, and built for his theatrical persona. The tune’s title alone tells you the lane, and the delivery matches it with menacing energy. The second major anchor is the Real Bad Gal combination with Stylish, Destiny, Tabeeta Cshae, and Tommy Lee Sparta, again in raw and radio forms, which gives the riddim a wider vocal spread without softening its edge.

Pop Bottles pairs Nicky B, Blak Diamon, and Voicemail, bringing a more playful party angle into the set, while Starboy Nathan’s Why You Stay adds a UK-rooted crossover touch that widens the riddim’s reach. The version cut closes the loop and lets the production speak for itself. This is a tight 2013 dancehall package, but its value is in the contrast: raw Sparta menace, crew energy on Pop Bottles, and enough melodic variety to keep the juggling moving.
