Juke-X Riddim – Kluzo Muzik

By 2011, Kluzo Muzik had this one in the middle of a busy run of dancehall riddims, and Juke-X comes off like a compact Creole-heavy showcase rather than a star vehicle for one name. The cuts from Fuckly, Mc Duc, and Buster Rico give it the sharpest edges, with “Mwen Inm? Fanm” and “Dancehall Bordel” landing especially hard over a clipped, club-ready rhythm that keeps the pulse tight and the bass close to the floor. There’s a local, carnival-season energy in the way the voices jump in and out, moving from swagger to sweet talk without losing the pressure underneath. Kluzo Muzik keeps the whole thing brisk and unpolished in the right way, and the lineup runs to 19 tracks, from Buster Rico’s “Fo Zanmi” through Titox’s “Nou L? La, ” with Mc Duc closing things out on “Dancehall Bordel. ”
