Pursue Riddim – Creative Noize Records

A compact four-vocalist set, Pursue Riddim pairs Cecile, Queen Ifrica, Shema, and Tony Rebel on a 2011 Creative Noize Records cut that keeps the focus on message-heavy reggae rather than gimmicks. The standout moment is Queen Ifrica’s “Pot Still Haffi Bubble, ” a plainspoken tune that sits right in her lane, while Cecile’s “Gwaan Live Life” opens the sequence with a more uplifting edge. Creative Noize’s version closes the tracklist, and the order feels deliberate: first the singers, then the instrumental, so the riddim lands as a complete piece instead of a loose pile of songs. It’s a tidy little showcase for Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor’s production style, with the vocals doing the talking and the final dub pass letting the rhythm breathe.
