Hazardous Riddim – Flava Squad Ent.

Hazardous has that straight-ahead early-2010s reggae-riddim feel: crisp drums, a lean bassline, and enough room for the singers to let the hooks carry the weight. Flava Squad Ent. line it with a neat spread of voices, from Laden’s “Can’t Stop I” and Warrior King’s “What You Want” to Natural Black’s devotional “Father God A Protect My Life, ” with Mega Banton bringing a tougher edge on “Hypocrites. ” The sequencing keeps the vocal cuts moving before closing on the instrumental version, so the riddim itself gets its own final spin. Riddim-ID places “Hazardous” in 2011, while the release was posted as a 2012 reggae riddim.
