Rize Up Riddim – Haad Rokk Muzik

A warm, roots-leaning rub-a-dub pulse runs through this one, with enough low-end weight to keep it grounded in modern reggae without losing the old-school feel. Haad Rokk Muzik lines up a solid set of voices here, and I Wayne’s “See Me Fail” feels like the kind of cut that locks the whole thing into place, carrying that conscious pressure the riddim seems made for. Lutan Fyah, Blakkman, and Devin Di Dakta also fit the groove nicely, each taking the same framework in a slightly different direction. The release first surfaced in 2016, and it plays like a snapshot of that period when clean digital production and roots-minded messaging were sitting comfortably side by side, with “Long Time” and “Stay Away From Them” tucked in near the end.
