In 2021, when dancehall was still leaning hard into sharp digital patterns and stripped-back street singles, Black Dragon Records cut Frequency Riddim as an 11-track juggling with a tight, almost purpose-built runtime of 33 minutes. The lineup moves between Jegz, Singer Jah, Kastro Di Bigga Dan, Dehema, Ragoo Punch and Donbeanz, with “Dutty Money, ” “Money” and “Fresh” doing a lot of the heavy lifting on the hook side. Black Dragon keeps the production lean and functional, with the kind of dry, punchy drum programming and blunt bass movement that leaves plenty of room for the artists to work their patois phrasing and money-talk across the cut. It’s a compact, no-frills set, and the steady mid-tempo pulse is what ties the whole thing together.
