Hopscotch Riddim (2010) – Seanizzle Records

Seanizzle was already testing out a tight little soca swing here, and the hook in QQ’s “Hopscotch” gives the riddim its springy center while Que and R. P. ’s “Don’t Waste Nuh Time” keeps the pace brisk and dance-ready with a sharper vocal edge. Sean Reid’s Seanizzle imprint keeps the arrangement lean, all quick-footed percussion and bright forward motion, so the whole thing feels made for road fever rather than studio polish. It’s a small set, just three cuts in all, with Seanizzle even closing it out on the instrumental “Hopscotch Riddim, ” which leaves the pattern exposed and easy to hear.
