Heart Lion Riddim – Various Artists

HEART LION RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2012

Coming out of the 2012 dancehall pile, Heart Lion Riddim feels like one of those assorted sections where the energy is less about one big-name anchor and more about how the voices jostle against each other. The set runs 11 tracks deep, with 14 artists taking turns over the same cut, and it leans into a busy, party-minded groove rather than chasing one mood all the way through. Nyrone’s “Weekend Party” and Chini Man and Steele’s “Wine Up The Place” set the tone early, while the Spanish-language turns from Rowland, Black Side Crew and Lenny El Autentico keep the project moving across different corners of the dancehall map. By the end, the sharper pull comes from Sick’s “Sexy Gyal, ” a track that lands with the kind of direct, club-ready wording that suits the riddim’s title.
