The Light Riddim from Whatage Music sits in that 2010 roots-reggae pocket where the groove does most of the talking: a steady one-drop pulse, warm low end, and just enough lift in the guitar and drum pattern to keep it moving without crowding the vocals. The lineup is tight, with Anthony Red Rose opening on “Hot Head Man, ” Lutan Fyah turning in the militant “Dem In Deh, ” and Natty King’s “Give Me A Slice” adding a more reflective edge. Fire Dove and Nesbeth help round out a seven-song set that keeps the focus on message songs rather than flashy hooks. Released in July 2010 and running just over an hour in its compiled form, the project has a clean, uncluttered feel, with the rhythm section carrying most of the weight and the singers riding the pocket with restraint.
