Optimism Riddim Vol. 2 (2017) – Nyze Boxx Music

Six artists ride Nyze Boxx Music’s Optimism Riddim Vol. 2, and the short lineup gives the project a focused, no-nonsense feel. Released in 2017, the six-track set moves through Eschoninco’s “Pass Away, ” Geo’s “No Lies, ” and Symatic’s “I Still Love You” before easing into Tydal, Vanzo, and Villa Dutch, each cut landing at roughly three minutes. The order feels deliberate: heartbreak, self-belief, survival, then a final push toward success. That sequencing gives the riddim a steady emotional arc instead of just a stack of separate tunes, with the title track’s message hanging over the whole set.
