Sexxual Riddim – Various Artists

SEXXUAL RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2005

2005 was deep in that rowdy, anything-goes dancehall stretch, and Sexxual Riddim fits right into it with a sharp, slightly cheeky energy that keeps the thing moving. Nicky B’s “Hands Up” comes in with a simple, direct hook, while Sizzla’s “They Dont Know” brings a rougher, more militant edge that gives the riddim some weight. Vybz Kartel’s “Mek We Set It” feels like the obvious pull here, leaning into the slack, streetwise swagger he was making a specialty around that time. With just three vocal cuts and a version, it’s a compact set rather than a sprawling compilation, which makes the title and the mood line up neatly for a 2005 dancehall drop.
