Imac Riddim – Tripledose Production

Came out of the 2016 dancehall stream with a neat little 12-track roll call, and Imac Riddim has that mid-2010s Kingston snap to it, all sharp drums and a clipped groove that leaves room for the vocals to cut through. Tripledose Production lines up Beenie Man alongside Blakk Man for “Real Bad Man, ” with Demarco’s “Board Box” and Jah Vinci’s “High In Yah” giving the set its biggest pull; Jah Vinci also pops back up with Nae Nae on “Sexual Commentary, ” which keeps the energy a touch cheekier. Raytid’s “Tastee” and Shakespear’s “Star Bwoy” fill out the latter stretch, and the whole thing arrived on 7 October 2016, tucked into a tight 36-minute run.
