Spiritual War Riddim – Frenz

A 14-cut roots set, Spiritual War Riddim lines up some of the era’s sharpest conscious voices, with Gyptian’s “Serious Times, ” Chuck Fenda’s “Crisis, ” and Lutan Fyah’s “Cry No More” giving the riddim plenty of weight. Kenneth Wilson, working through Frenz Records, keeps the production lean and reverent, with that early-2000s reggae tension sitting under songs about spiritual struggle, social pressure, and survival. Anthony Cruz opens with “I Had A Dream, ” while Leroy Smart’s “A Chapter A Day” and Spanner Banner’s “Mother Earth” help widen the mood beyond straight sufferation talk. It first appeared in 2005, and the full set runs from Anthony Cruz through Turbulence’s “Thousand Times, ” with 14 different artists on the same riddim.
