Real Iron Riddim – Cousins 2003

By 2003, the rootsy end of dancehall was still carrying plenty of weight, and Real Iron lands right in that moment with a cast that pairs veterans and firebrands over a hard, militant groove. Anthony B’s “Hail To The King” and Sizzla’s “Holy Mount Zion” sit comfortably beside Alton Ellis, Gregory Isaacs, Frankie Paul and Eek-A-Mouse, while Luciano’s “King Of Kings” and Mikey General’s “Stick To The Good” keep the conscious tone front and center. The riddim is credited to Blacker Dread, whose name also appears on the label side, and the whole thing runs like a compact 10-song set with no wasted motion, from Brown Lion’s “Ras Did It” through Ultimate Shine’s closer, “One More Time. ”
