Rihanna Riddim – Dollar Gettaz Records

Dollar Gettaz Records’ Rihanna Riddim landed in 2015 as a Zim-dancehall juggling with 13 cuts from 11 artists, led by names like Freeman, Crystal, Dobba Don, Ashy, and Dorcas. The set mixes attitude and rivalry talk with songs such as Freeman’s Shave Ra Rihanna, Freeman’s Body Parts, Crystal’s Handichada and Ndine Shanje, plus Viviuun’s Masaskam, which is billed as a Jerry Bhutis and Gringo Spice diss. It is a straightforward local dancehall package, but the lineup gives it plenty of personality, and Freeman’s two appearances help anchor the riddim with the kind of bold, street-level energy the title suggests.
