Let Me Live Riddim (1995) – Zulu Production

Let Me Live Riddim is a 1995 reggae various-artists set from Zulu Production that brings together 11 cuts around the title rhythm, with a strong roots-conscious leaning and a mix of established voices and rising names. Anthony B’s See Babylon There, Beenie Man’s Life Story, Daweh Congo’s Coconut Chalice, Jahmali’s Let Me Live, Lenn Hammond’s See You In Zion, Mikey Spice’s Can U Be Mine, and Sizzla’s Hail The Woman give the compilation plenty of range, while Prezident Brown and Mikey Spice team up on Seduction. It’s a tidy mid-90s selector piece with no filler beyond the version, and it captures that period when Zulu Production was lining up conscious singers and dancehall names on the same riddim.
