The Royalty Riddim – Royalty | Respect

Royalty and Respect and The Arkitechz line this one up as a straight 2018 dancehall juggling, and the shape of it is pretty clear from the tracklist: 12 cuts, 12 different voices, all moving through the same rhythmic frame. Jah Hem’s “I Need Your Body, ” Monty G’s “We Up Deh, ” and Black Chyle’s “Hot Gyal” sit alongside other quick-hitting tunes from Selecta Chronic, Fyah Lynxh, and Jay Shephard, keeping the riddim in that contemporary bashment pocket rather than drifting into anything too glossy. Released on August 3, 2018, the project runs just under 40 minutes, with each song landing in the three-minute range, which gives it the feel of a clean, compact sound-system package. The Royalty Riddim was issued by Royalty and Respect Management.
