War Zone Riddim – Show Di Vybz Records

WAR ZONE RIDDIM produced by SHOW DI VYBZ RECORDS 2012

Maxwell’s “You Will Die” is the sharpest jab on War Zone Riddim, and it sets the tone for a 2012 dancehall juggling that keeps its sights on conflict talk, gun talk, and grim-faced badness. Show Di Vybz Records keeps the rhythm taut and strident, leaving room for voices like Warface on “War Continue” and Al Beeno on “Dem Dead” to cut through with that extra bit of menace, while Chilando’s “From Dem Seh War” gives the whole set a chant-ready edge. The production and the voice work feel wired together rather than separate, especially when Texas Family’s “Empty The Clip” hits against the same hard, militant pulse. Nine tracks in all, with the label itself closing the sequence on the title cut, almost like a signature at the bottom of a threat.
