Jah Youth Elevation Riddim (aka J.y.e Riddim)

JAH YOUTH ELEVATION RIDDIM (AKA J.Y.E RIDDIM) – VARIOUS ARTISTS 2008

Jah Youth Elevation Riddim leans into conscious roots reggae with a frontline of voices that know how to carry a message without losing the groove. Mikey General opens with “In Jah We Trust, ” while Turbulence and Natural Black keep the pressure on with sharper social commentary, and Capleton’s “Spread The Love” gives the set its strongest push; Sizzla and Ismael Lo round out the six-cut run. The sequence keeps the energy moving straight through, with no dub cuts or instrumentals getting in the way, so it plays like a tight vocal showcase rather than a padded compilation. Issued in 2008, the riddim also sits neatly alongside that year’s wave of militant, prayerful reggae productions.
