The Jet Riddim – Builders Records

The Jet Riddim comes through as a compact 13-track 2004 dancehall set with a pretty lively spread of voices, and the Builders crew keeps the focus on song titles that feel straight out of the era’s street talk and swagger. Determine’s “Catch Me With A Sliff” and Mad Anju’s “Mouth Badman” give it that rough-edged, tightly wound energy, while Music Addict’s pair of cuts leans into the more playful, everyday side of the riddim. Builders also had Diavalla “Dia” Fearon behind the board on this one, which fits the label’s run of early-2000s projects that stayed active around the same period. With Bugsy Malone, Sugar Slick, and Peter Lloyd all in the mix, The Jet sits nicely in that 2004 dancehall pocket where riddims were moving fast and the tunes had to hit quick.
