Money Tree Riddim – Livup Records

Money Tree Riddim feels like a snapshot of early-2010 dancehall money talk, but it’s got a sharper edge than a lot of the glossy hustle tunes that were floating around at the time. Livup Records lines up big voices like Vybz Kartel on “Money Tree, ” Konshens on “Money Double, ” and Demarco’s “Work Hard, ” while Bramma’s “This Anthem” gets both edit and raw versions, which gives the set a little extra bite. The riddim itself runs hard and lean, with that no-nonsense club pressure that suits Bugle, Serani, and Pamputtae just as much as the headline names. Released on April 27, 2010, it lands right in the middle of that era when dancehall kept circling the same themes of survival, ambition, and status, but here the money chase is treated with a bit more grit than glamour.
