War Wid Mi Riddim – Various Artists

WAR WID MI RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2011

“War Wid Mi” leans into that tense, confrontational dancehall angle right away, with Kaysha Lee’s title cut giving the riddim its whole attitude. The set keeps the energy sharp and compact: 5 Star comes in with “You Bad” in both edit and raw form, Faze does the same with “Give Her It Good, ” and Eyesus’ “Complain” is the one that feels like the clearest hook in the pack. There’s a familiar early-2010s swagger here, the kind of stripped, no-nonsense cut that sits somewhere between street-level badness and party flex, and the multiple edit/raw pairings point to a release aimed squarely at selectors and juggling DJs. With 13 tracks from 11 artists, it sits neatly among the tougher dancehall riddims of 2011, more about pressure and personality than polish.
