Redboom Riddim – Frenz For Real

Back in 2012, when dancehall juggling was still leaning hard on sharp one-drop hooks and streetwise mic work, Frenz For Real rolled out Redboom Riddim with a compact nine-track lineup that moves from Propally’s “God A Watch We” to Josey Wales’ “All Night” and Natty King’s “Hype Girl” with the kind of seasoned contrast that keeps a project like this lively. Natural Black’s “Searching For My Baby” brings a more melodic, soulful edge, while 3 Star’s “Hard Fi Know” and Prophecy’s “My World” keep the energy firmly in dancehall territory; the rhythm itself is a lean, vocal-forward cut from Frenz For Real, with the instrumental tucked in as the closing track. Josey Wales is the old-school anchor here, giving the riddim a little extra weight, and the full sequence runs nine selections deep, ending with “Redboom Riddim. ”
