Ghetto Ska Riddim – Various Artists

Ghetto Ska Riddim produced by Various Artists 2010

A light, skanking groove runs through Ghetto Ska Riddim, but the voices on top keep it from feeling too neat: Basil Gabiddon’s “Streets Of Glory” leans into the devotional side, while Daniel Johnson’s “Come On My People” pushes the message harder with a sharper, more insistent delivery. Frank Cosmo’s “On Your Knees” and Lloyd Clarke’s “Love Me Or Leave Me” add a little contrast, and Beckford gets the biggest slice of the riddim, moving from the cheeky “Bajan Girl” to the tougher “Boiler Man” and “Grudgeful People. ” With eight artists across eighteen cuts, it’s one of those 2010 reggae sets that works like a compact showcase for singers who can ride a ska pulse without rushing it.
