Tantrum Riddim – White Stone Productions

By 2014, reggae riddim albums were leaning hard into conscious roots with enough modern polish to keep selectors interested, and Tantrum Riddim fits that moment with a warm, band-driven feel that leaves room for vocals to breathe. White Stone Productions had already been building toward that approach, and Jubba White has since pointed to Tantrum as his first riddim project, which gives the set a real early-chapter energy. Bushman’s “Reminiscing” is the anchor here, carrying the kind of weight you’d expect from a veteran voice, while Dubtonic Kru and Ras Brando add a stronger, more urgent edge elsewhere in the sequence. The order is telling too: the release opens with newer names, circles back with alternate cuts, and lets “The System” and “Hold Me” return in a second pass, like a producer testing how the same riddim shifts under different singers.
