Warm, rootsy and a little loose in the pocket, Five Star Riddim carries that late-2000s one-drop feel with enough bass weight to keep the dance moving. Monster Shack lines up a strong spread here, from Anthony B’s “I Love You” and Coco Tea’s “Star Time” to Lutan Fyah’s “Since I Fell In Love, ” with Macka Diamond and Mr Perfect giving the set some extra edge in the middle. The instrumental cut lets the rhythm breathe, and that’s part of the charm: it isn’t chasing the glossy digital sound that was crowding out a lot of 2007 reggae, but leaning into a more live, earthy sway instead. In Monster Shack’s catalogue, this sits nicely as one of those singer-friendly riddims that favors melody and message over flash.
