Suicide Riddim – Vigilanti Music

Vigilanti Music’s Suicide Riddim landed in 2000 as a compact dancehall juggling with 11 tracks and a strong early-2000s cast. Beeno Ranks opens with Giving Praises, while Delly Ranks brings Vex And Buss and T. O. K. adds Freaked Out, with notable appearances from Kiprich, Lexxus, Tanto Metro and Devonte, and Zumjay. The version cut, Dean Mundy’s Suicide Instrumental, helps anchor the set and gives the riddim its tense, driving feel. Vigilanti kept the focus tight here, pairing conscious and straight-up dancehall cuts on one rhythm that also shows up in the same year’s broader crop of releases.
