Part Of Me Riddim – Magnet Records

Back in 2017, when roots-flavoured reggae compilations were still leaning hard on conscious lyrics and smooth lovers-rock phrasing, Magnet Records cut a seven-song set that keeps the energy warm and reflective rather than aggressive. The title track’s spirit runs through the whole cut: George Nooks’ “In Misery, ” Lloyd Brown’s “Make Way for Love, ” and Peter Hunningale’s “Wish” all sit on a clean, melodic groove that feels measured and sing-along ready, with Amberlique and Kash I adding a younger edge to the lineup. JAY’s “Made Way for Love” and Richie Davis’ “Feel It” keep the message direct, and the instrumental bed leaves enough space for every voice to breathe, closing out as a tidy, vocal-led reggae session.
