Easy Riddim – Waunde

Man Wazimu’s “Nah Text” feels like the sharpest hook on Waunde’s 2012 Easy Riddim, and it’s the kind of cut that gives the whole set its edge with that clipped, no-nonsense dancehall pressure. The project keeps the cast tight, with Pythom and Cyras sliding into “Selekta Pull Up” and Warrior Street cutting through on “Sexy Ghal, ” while Waunde Family’s “Nalia” ties the producer’s name directly to the vibe. There’s no bloated line-up here, just six voices across nine cuts and an “Easy Version” that leaves the riddim bare enough to hear the bounce. It’s a small, tidy release, but the energy is plain enough from the first pull.
