Ocean Nights Riddim – 4th Genna Music|G3 Musik

4th Genna Music linking with G3 Musik on Ocean Nights Riddim gives this 2015 set a slick, late-night dancehall feel, the kind that sits closer to a pop-minded groove than a raw street bashment pull. Aidonia’s “Pretty Please” and Konshens’ “Sexperience” do a lot of the heavy lifting, but Ishawna ends up owning the riddim with both “Forever” cuts, pushing the project into more openly flirtatious, sly territory. The lineup is tight rather than crowded, with Deablo, Jayds, Neeqah and Kray-Z keeping the energy moving without crowding the hooky singles. It’s a compact eight-track run, and that little detail matters here, because the riddim never overstays its welcome.
