Rupee is the obvious anchor here, and “Tempted To Touch” gives Loveable And The Grippa Riddim its quickest point of entry, a 2002 Waist Line Muzik cut that sits a little closer to soca than straight dancehall, with a bright, waist-moving pulse underneath the vocals. That lighter feel suits the rest of the lineup, especially Edwin Yearwood on “The Best In Me” and Bunji Garlin with Mr. Menace on “Dead Prezidents, ” while Peter Ram and Screw Face keep the energy on the harder side. Waist Line Muzik knew how to thread those worlds together, and the mix of Rupee’s crossover sparkle with the grittier takes from Rameses Browne and Oscar B makes the riddim feel broader than the title first suggests, almost like a small snapshot of early-2000s island radio at work.
