Kick Out Teeth Riddim – Suncycle Production

Sly, mid-tempo dancehall with a blunt edge is what Kick Out Teeth Riddim leans into, the kind of Suncycle Production cut that leaves room for the voices to jab and ride rather than crowd the rhythm. The 2012 set pulls in a tight run of mainly dancehall selectors — Lantern’s “No Fight, ” Zagu Zarr’s “Clap It Up, ” Kinglish’s “Nuh Fraid A Dem, ” Alaska’s “Cyan Badd Mi Up, ” and G Starr’s “Wi Nah Run” — with Lady Chann and Dirty Goodz stepping in for the tougher, more conversational “Hide And Seek. ” There’s a useful UK link in the mix too, since Tenza’s “Out And Clean” pushed the riddim back into circulation around the time, but the most memorable cut here is G Starr’s “Wi Nah Run, ” which carries the project’s hard-nosed energy right where it needs to go.
