Racketeering Riddim – Pure And Clean

Pure and Clean weren’t chasing flashy crossover tricks on Racketeering Riddim in 2003; they kept it rooted and direct, letting the songwriters carry the weight. Anthony B comes in heated on “It Fi Dun, ” while Luciano’s “Save Humanity” gives the set that conscious pressure he’s known for. Mykal Rose is the other clear pull here, especially on “What A Gwaan, ” which gets an extra twist with Polly Famous on the cut listed alongside it, and Virgo Man’s title tune keeps the message locked on the system’s mess. With just six tracks and a tight lineup, it plays like a compact early-2000s roots session rather than a sprawling compilation, the kind of release that slipped into the reggae circuit in 2003 and did its job without any big fanfare.
