In April 2021, when dancehall was leaning hard into slick digital riddims and quick-hit single runs, Damage Musiq came through with Tropical Depression, a seven-track cut that keeps the energy tight and the rhythm lean at just over 20 minutes. Teejay’s “Rich” and Rygin King’s “Dancehall Baddest Thing” do a lot of the heavy lifting here: the first rides the beat with a confident, streetwise swagger, while the second comes in punchier and more confrontational. Kranium’s “Options” and the Navino/Jahmiel link-up on “Too Late” add a smoother, melodic side without softening the riddim’s bounce. With Shatta Wale and Shawn Storm also in the mix, it feels like one of those pandemic-era dancehall packages built for replay, all released on April 16, 2021 and kept compact enough to hit quick.
