Monday Morning Riddim – Weeded Records

Weeded Records kept the Monday Morning Riddim tight and to the point in 2002, and that economy is part of the charm: just four cuts, with Determine’s “Wipe Your Tears” and Turbulence’s “Finally Free” sitting beside Mikey General’s “No One Said” and the bare-bones version. The whole thing leans into a clean roots reggae pulse rather than anything flashy, so the voices do the heavy lifting, especially Determine, who sounds especially natural riding the groove. It’s the kind of riddim that feels less like a showcase package and more like a small, well-chosen snapshot of the era, with Richie Spice’s “Monday Morning” also appearing in the wider catalog even if it’s not on this tracklist, a neat little detail.
