Keep Strong Riddim 2.0 (2021) – Grinch Records

OCG’s “Faith” is the cleanest way into Keep Strong Riddim 2. 0, a 10-cut 2021 dancehall set from Grinch Records that keeps the energy taut and street-level without getting crowded. From there, NickiCee’s “Broken, ” Raine Seville’s “Goodbye, ” and Jahazeil’s title cut push the mood in different directions, while Esco Da Shocker doubles up with “F*ck Pon Me” and “Cheat Pon Me” for the rougher edge of the compilation. Compared with Grinch’s earlier Keep Strong riddim, this second version feels a little more focused and less sprawling, with the same grimy bounce but a sharper balance between hard talk and melodic hooks. Galaxy P’s “Different” and I-talixVevo’s “Heavens Letter” keep the set moving, and that’s the lane Grinch seems to own here: compact, militant dancehall built for selectors who like their juggling firm and direct.
