Ingredients Riddim – Lazeme Music

Muted and rootsy, Ingredients Riddim leans into a conscious reggae lane and keeps the focus on voices that carry the message, with Luciano’s “Book Of Life” and Teflon’s “Free Your Mind” sitting up front alongside Swallow’s “Don’t Give Up On Life. ” Lazeme Music keeps the arrangement spare enough for the singers to do the heavy lifting, and the sequence moves from social commentary to uplift without breaking the mood. Ras Makonen’s “Nuh Gimme Dat” and Ras Noble’s “Real Black Woman” add a tougher edge, while Agi’s “The One 4 Me” closes the vocal run before the title cut. It was issued in 2014 and lists eight tracks in all, including the instrumental version from Lazeme Music.
