Lovers Race Riddim comes across as a 2005 roots-and-lovers showcase with a strong conscious streak, carrying Fire Links Records’ name across a tidy spread of vocal cuts. Anthony Cruz’s “Like A Mountain” and Luciano’s “Love Is Back Again” set the tone early, while Chrisinti, Chuck Fenda and Ghost keep the mood moving between devotion and uplift. The riddim also makes room for some sharper edges: Queen Ifrika’s “Burn Some Herb With Me” and Tony Rebel’s “Beg Man Fi Kill Dem” push the package beyond straight lover’s rock, and the Sugar Minott and Sizzla pairing on “Lovers Race” gives it a real veteran pull. Lukie D even doubles up with “I Need You” and “Without You, ” which helps the set stay melodic without drifting soft. If there’s one cut that anchors the whole thing, it’s Luciano’s warm, forward-leaning “Love Is Back Again. ”
