Sunshine Riddim (2017) – Hevs Records

Hevs Records’ Sunshine Riddim sits in that mid-2010s dancehall pocket where the energy is bright but the lyrical talk still leans rough, and the name fits the mood without softening the edge. The set stretches across 13 cuts with 11 artists, so you get a proper one-riddim round-up rather than a lone vocal showcase, and Atta Klapz comes in twice with “She Want More” in clean and explicit versions, while Caution Banga’s “Yuh Too Badmind” and Leanny Frass’s “Place Weh Mi Come From” keep the vibes grounded in everyday badmind, hustle, and hometown pride. There’s a tidy contrast between the smoother tunes like David Best’s “Fall In Love With Many Things” and the sharper street talk from Shaddoh Blackz on “Be Like Dat, ” and Hevs closes the package with the instrumental.
