Full Trackle Riddim – Kwashawna Records

Kwashawna Records kept Full Trackle Riddim in a straight, modern dancehall lane in 2020, with Shane Brown credited as producer and the label pushing the release as part of its growing riddim catalogue. The setup is simple but effective: two clean-and-raw splits for Sikka Rymes and John D, a joint cut from Chronic Law and Shawn Storm, and a lone closer from Garrison Curtis. That structure gives the juggling a clear club and sound-system purpose.

The rhythm itself feels built for forward motion rather than ornament. It has that hard, compact dancehall snap that leaves room for voices to carry the tension, with enough space in the instrumental for melody, attitude, and patois phrasing to cut through. Sikka Rymes uses the beat for the sly, flirtatious energy of Jeans Pon Mi, and the clean/raw versions make the song read like a radio-to-road transition. John D’s Mona Lisa follows a similar path, adding a more polished, romantic edge without softening the riddim’s stance.

The project’s heaviest moment comes from Chronic Law and Shawn Storm on Never Give Up, where their delivery gives the rhythm a tougher, more determined pull. Garrison Curtis closes with Team, a cut that helps round out the set with a direct, slogan-ready finish. It’s a short release, but it works like a proper dancehall package: one rhythm, a few strong voices, and enough variation to keep selectors moving.
