Shoot Out Riddim – John John Records

John John Records usually arrives with heavyweight dancehall, but Shoot Out Riddim leans especially hard into a dark, gun-talk mood, opening with Mykal Rose and Junior Gong on the remix before Buju Banton, Mavado, Sizzla and Busy Signal take turns riding the same tense, clip-clop pattern. The standout is that Mykal Rose link-up with Junior Gong, which gives the set a roots-reggae edge before the riddim snaps back into straight yard-style menace on cuts like Buju’s “People Dem a Bawl” and Mavado’s “Push Broom. ” It’s a compact 2008 juggling with 13 tracks in all, and the “Version” closes things out after a run that also includes Elephant Man and Demarco, Stacious, and Mr Easy.
