Its A Party Riddim – Various Artists

ITS A PARTY RIDDIM- VARIOUS ARTISTS 2006

Its A Party Riddim doesn’t waste time chasing subtlety; this 2006 dancehall set is all punch and motion, with four cuts from Joseph Shepherd, Leego, Ricky General and Sizzla riding the same party-ready groove. Sizzla’s “Its A Party” feels like the obvious centrepiece, but the tune that really ties the vibe together is Ricky General’s “The Way We Roll, ” which sits right between Shepherd’s tougher “Party Rock” and Leego’s smoother, more open-hearted “I Will Be There. ” That contrast gives the riddim a nice little push-pull, like a selector moving from hype to uplift without breaking the dance. It’s a small roster, just four voices, but the sequence leaves the whole thing feeling tightly packed and easy to remember, right down to that last Sizzla chant.
