Down Town Riddim – True Blue Family

Ten cuts deep and heavy on name recognition, Down Town Riddim leans into that early-2000s dancehall moment where big voices could share the same groove without anyone sounding out of place. Anthony B opens with the title tune, Sizzla’s “Lion Fi Roar” pushes the energy into tougher territory, and mercurial crowd-pleasers like General Degree, Merciless and Ward 21 keep the whole thing moving with that sharp, cheeky edge True Blue Family were known for around the time. The riddim dates to 2002, and the lineup also runs through Frisco Kid, Harry Toddler, Lexxus and Mega Banton, so there’s plenty of variety without losing the thread. It closes, fittingly, with the instrumental version cut, “Down Town, ” making the full package ten tracks in all.
