Gregory Isaacs’ “Fight Over Me” hangs over Get A Beaten Riddim with that cool, unhurried gravity only he could pull off, and it gives Rocky Gibbs’ 2005 cut its deepest pull. The riddim rides a dry, hard-edged one-drop pulse with a stern bassline and enough space for singers to stretch out, so Admiral Tibet, Bushman, Luciano, George Nooks and Everton Blender all come in sounding purposeful rather than crowded. Peter Tosh’s “Dem A Fi Get A Beaten (2k5 Mix)” and the Tosh-Buju pairing on “Must Get A Beaten” tie the set back to roots-era defiance, while Ginjah and Natty King keep the messaging sharp and current. It’s the kind of mid-2000s conscious reggae release that took an old chant and reworked it for a new generation of sound system play.
