Look To The East Riddim – Blemo Crichton And Owen Knibbs

A warm, rootsy groove with a patient one-drop pulse and a little uplift in the chords sets the mood on Look To The East Riddim, a five-track 2021 EP from Blemo Crichton and Owen Knibbs Music. The cut that really pulls focus is Owen Knibbs’ “No More Guns In The Ghetto, ” which sits naturally beside Aterny’s “Nice Day Today” and Blaq Capone’s “Last Sound Standing, ” giving the riddim a message-heavy thread without sounding heavy-handed. Crichton and Knibbs keep the arrangement lean enough for the voices to breathe, and that spare, conscious feel is what ties the whole thing together. Miss Banks’ “Cheris The Day” slips in a softer note, almost like a reminder that the title isn’t just symbolic. All told, it’s a compact set with an instrumental tucked on the end.
