Summer Project Riddim – Skibbo Don Music

Summer Project Riddim keeps to a lean, late-summer dancehall swing: 11 tracks in a little over 30 minutes, all cut in 2018 under Skibbo Don Music, with Jahvillani, Devanox, and Teebone among the names pushing it forward. The set leans on party talk and streetwise living, from “Wi Out Yah” and “Party Up” to “Living Up” and “Real G Code, ” so the mood stays upbeat without getting glossy. Skibbo Don frames the voices around a taut, mid-tempo riddim that leaves plenty of room for the deejays to ride the pocket, with the bass line doing most of the work and the percussion keeping the stride light but firm. It’s the kind of rhythm where the hook lands fast and the cadence does the rest.
