Rendevouz Riddim – Trackstar Media Group

Rendevouz Riddim lands in that early-2020s dancehall pocket where the drums stay tight, the bass sits low and the vocals do the talking. Trackstar Media Group lines up a mixed cast here, and the better cuts lean into attitude: Peligro’s “Wul Out” feels made for the clash side of the dance, while Bae and Peligro’s “War In My Eyes” brings a more charged, streetwise tension to the same groove. Cleva Don’s “Badman” and Madd One’s “Badmind” keep the focus on hard-edged dancehall talk, with enough melody in the rhythm to give the artists room to ride it properly. Coming out in 2021, the set has that compact, no-frills feel that was common for digital riddims of the period, built for selectors who wanted a few cuts that could move a crowd fast.
