Like A Game Riddim – Various Artists

LIKE A GAME RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2010

By 2010, dancehall was full of streetwise, reflective one-riddim sets, and Like A Game Riddim sits right in that mood with a compact five-cut lineup that keeps the message front and center. Frasswel’s Pon A Journey and Shane E’s Purpose Of My Life frame the project with conscious ambition, while Globehead’s Who We and Kg 9’s title tune push the “game” idea from different angles. The names here aren’t thrown together for volume; each artist gets room to state a position, which suits a riddim that sounds more about pressure and perseverance than flashy hook chasing. It opens with Frasswel and closes on Shane E, so the sequencing feels deliberate, like the producer wanted the set to move from struggle toward purpose rather than just cycle through voices.
