Lead Out Riddim (2013) – Inna Wi Genes Records

A low-slung 2013 dancehall cut, this one leans more on attitude than flash, with the rhythm carrying that stern, no-nonsense feel you’d expect from a sound-system-ready juggling. Deepjahi’s title track sets the tone in both raw and clean versions, while Serani’s “Fight Fi Fight” and Tiyarro’s “Bredda Still” keep the energy tight and confrontational without overcooking it. Melloquence’s “Beat Of My Own Drum” adds a little personal swagger in the middle of the sequence, and the fact that the riddim is padded out with both raw and clean takes for a few songs gives it that proper yard-style presentation. Inna Wi Genes Records keeps the tracklist lean and focused, ending with Mellis’ “Frake Friend” in raw and clean form, which leaves the whole project feeling like a straight-up dancehall selection built for replay.
