Raybeez Riddim – Broken Language Production

2005 was deep in that tough mid-2000s dancehall stretch, when sharp one-riddim projects were still packing clubs and sound systems with clipped, hard-edged vocals over stark digital grooves. Raybeez Riddim from Broken Language Production fits right into that moment, with Capleton’s “Sen On Di Woman” leading a lineup that also pulls in Chico, Delly Ranks, Vybz Kartel and Voicemail, while the cut from Chico and Hollow Tip adds a nice two-artist spark to the set. The production keeps the energy taut and percussive, giving the singers plenty of room to ride out boasting, gun talk and streetwise uplift without crowding the beat, and Cartel’s “Living Alright” and Capleton’s cut feel like the strongest anchors here. There are 12 tracks in all, including the version, so the project runs as a compact 2005 dancehall package with a clean, proper roster.
