Love And Passion Riddim – J-Rod Records

J-Rod Records leans into a sweeter, lovers-rock side here, cutting away from the harder-edged dancehall energy that tends to dominate a lot of modern riddim sets and putting the focus on melody, tenderness, and clean vocal phrasing. Jah Vinci’s “Worth It” and Pinchers’ “For Your Love” give the project its biggest pull, while Glen Ricks, Little John, and Nicky Silk keep the mood warm and heartfelt over a compact eight-cut selection. The production stays airy but rooted, with a steady one-drop pulse, bright guitar touches, and enough bass weight to keep the whole thing moving without crowding the singers. Di Rebel’s “Rush of Emotion” is one of the sharper turns on the set, and the tracklist also includes J Angel’s title cut, “Love and Passion, ” plus “Can’t Let Go” from Glen Ricks. In all, Love And Passion Riddim lands as an eight-song 2019 reggae project from J-Rod Records.
