Smoothness Riddim – DJ Jaul Productions

2019 was a year when dancehall kept leaning into slimmer, digital-sounding riddims, and Smoothness fits that pocket with an easy, mid-tempo bounce and a tidy eight-track run. DJ Jaul Productions keeps the cast compact, giving room for Wyah Dan on “Real Tugz, ” Talis with both “Don’t Worry” versions, and Terry K alongside Akeem Ambitious on “Oh Gosh, ” which adds a little more pressure than the title suggests. The set also folds in Nass, Jayharno, and Tfinest Allday’s “Control Yuh (remix), ” then closes on the instrumental, so the order feels deliberate: vocals first, riddim last, like the producer wanted the groove to linger after the songs are done.
