Tek It To Dem Riddim – Kool Face Records

Maestro Don sets the tone on Tek It To Dem Riddim with the title cut, a quick-fire dancehall piece that feels built for sound system pull-up moments rather than glossy radio polish. Kool Face Records keeps the arrangement lean and punchy, with enough low-end pressure and skippy percussion to give the voices room to cut through. Pesh Don’s More Money pushes the money-chasing angle, while Prince Akeem’s Hard Times brings a rougher, more street-level edge to the project; Tishaine’s Man Ready adds a sharper melodic turn, and Tony Joi’s Splurt rounds out the set with a bristling, concise toast. With six artists across nine tracks, including radio edits and an instrumental, the riddim sits right in that 2021 wave of compact, DJ-friendly dancehall packages that favored immediate impact over long runtime.
