Rise Up Riddim (2014) – Oneness Records

Rise Up Riddim leans into uplifting roots reggae with a roomy, mid-tempo bounce that leaves space for the singers to work the message. Oneness Records put it out on 28 February 2014 from Munich, with Moritz Da Baron Korff and Benjammin behind the production, and Buju Banton’s “Suffer So” gives the cut list an immediate pull before Queen Omega, Prince Malachi and Jahcoustix take it in different directions. The connection between label and lineup feels natural here: Sara Lugo, Ziggi Recado and Positive Young Lion all sit comfortably in the same conscious lane, but it’s the cleaner, chant-heavy turns like “Blessed” and “Peace” that linger. There’s even an instrumental version tucked in the package, just in case you want the riddim by itself.
