In 2005, Hard Drive Records lined up Penthouse II as a roots-leaning reggae set with just enough crossover muscle to keep the pace moving, a snapshot of the mid-2000s when conscious singing and dancehall heat were still sharing the same riddim space. Cocoa Tea’s “Signs Of The Time” and Richie Spice’s “Hand Mi Di Torch” anchor the spiritual side, while Elephant Man’s “All She Wants” and Turbulence’s “Not My Friend” push it toward a sharper, more rugged edge. Abijah, Spanner Banner, and Ultimate Shine keep the message-heavy tone intact, but it’s Richie Spice who leaves the deepest mark here, sounding like he already knows exactly how much weight this riddim can carry.
