Push Back Riddim – Khame Up Records

A crisp, percussive dancehall groove with a dry kick and a nagging little bounce drives Push Back Riddim, the 2014 Khame Up Records set, and it feels geared for dancers as much as selectors. The lineup keeps the energy moving without overloading the listener: Gyptian slides in with the smooth menace of “Send Them Come, ” Junior Reid brings veteran weight to “The Girls Dem Love Me, ” and Da’Ville leans into the more romantic side on “What U Doing To Me. ” Supa Hype’s “Smoke Weed and Fly” adds a rougher, more streetwise edge, while Bella, Zeena Banks, and Prince Stoney help fill out a 12-cut package that keeps the same pulse running through each voice. It arrived in that busy mid-2010s stretch when digital dancehall riddims were still leaning hard on lean arrangements, catchy hooks, and enough bass to shake a sound system cabinet.
