Simple City Riddim – Various Artists

SIMPLE CITY RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2012

Simple City rides on a tough, straight-ahead dancehall pulse, and the best moments come when voices like Hawkeye on “You A Di Wife” and Mikeylous on “Nuff Things Mi Know” lean into that clipped, streetwise groove while the whole set keeps the energy tight and unshowy. It’s one of those 2012 juggling-style releases where the appeal is less about big star power and more about hearing a stacked cast move across the same rhythm from different angles, with Shocking Murray’s “Stick Her Up, ” Kryss’ “She Rock My World, ” and Jah Quan’s “Never Want Fi See Wi” giving it extra shape. The riddim was later tied to Juju Music Production, and the set runs 11 tracks deep, moving from tougher party talk to more reflective cuts like Natty Soljah’s “Pain Of Lost. ”
