Victorious Riddim (2021) – Cash Talk Productions

By 2021, dancehall was leaning hard into sharp, compact juggling projects, and Victorious Riddim sits right in that moment with nine cuts from seven artists over just 30 minutes. Cash Talk Productions keeps the groove taut and street-ready, with enough space for each singer to land a different angle: 21Law’s “Stay Far” comes in guarded and direct, Nakodon turns inward on “Pray Fi Me, ” and Jay McCarthy stretches out on “Obsessive Ex, ” the longest tune here. Xtreem and Po3tik each get both clean and raw versions, which gives the set a little extra bite without changing the pressure underneath. It’s the kind of riddim that moves fast but leaves a clear aftertaste, ending with Po3tik’s “Spliff A Light” and the instrumental pulse that ties the whole thing together.
