Strike Back Riddim – Burton Records

Burton Records wasn’t chasing a big, crowded one-drop showcase here; Strike Back Riddim keeps things lean, with just four cuts and a sharp little instrumental anchored by Alec Burton and Shelter. Lutan Fyah opens it in the strongest position with “Thanks And Praise, ” and that choice says a lot about the mood Burton was after: conscious, reflective, and sturdy rather than flashy. Jah Turban’s “Perseverance” and Wendy Wonder’s “Stronger” keep the same spiritual pulse going, each one leaning into determination without drifting off the groove. The release dates to 2009, and that matters because it sits right in that period when producers were still making compact vocal riddims that felt like proper statements instead of oversized compilations. With the title track closing the set, the sequencing feels deliberate, almost like the instrumental is meant to lock the whole thing in after the singers have done their talking.
