Mind Me Off Riddim – Purple Skunk Records

Purple Skunk Records’ Mind Me Off Riddim lands in that mid-2000s roots-reggae pocket where the voice carries the weight, and this one lines up a pretty tasty cast around it: Anthony B’s “Hard – E” has that hard-edged uplift you want from him, while Richie Spice’s “Mind Offa Me” leans deeper into the meditative side of the riddim. Chuck Fender’s “Raise Up My People” and Teflon’s “Rise Up, Stand Firm” keep the conscious energy flowing, and Pliers’ “All Is Well” adds a smoother, more seasoned touch to the set. The tracklist is rounded out by Anthony Cruz, Bascom X, and Sugar Roy and Conrad Crystal, with the sort of sturdy, one-riddim construction that was everywhere in 2005 but still feels locked in here.
