Sugar Riddim – Special Delivery Music

Special Delivery Music were already known for stitching together polished, melody-heavy reggae riddims, and Sugar Riddim sits right in that run from the French label’s late-2000s catalog. The project landed in December 2009 and runs as a full 17-track set, with Gappy Ranks, Demarco, Peetah Morgan and Rupee among the names carrying the strongest weight. Gappy Ranks’ “The Rain” and Rupee’s “Not Giving Up” give the cut a firm emotional center, while Million Stylez and Da’ville keep the vocal tone sweet rather than overly hard. The sequencing feels deliberate too, moving from brighter love songs into rootsier turns like Oba Simba’s “The Herb” and Jah Sun’s “Woman of Virtue, ” before easing out through the version at the end.
