White Collar Riddim – Various Artists

WHITE COLLAR RIDDIM produced by VARIOUS ARTISTS 2010

By 2010, dancehall was deep in that sharp, talk-up territory where a good one-riddim set needed attitude as much as knock, and White Collar Riddim leans right into that mood with three compact cuts and a clean instrumental pass. Blak Ryno’s “Seh Dem Yuh Fren” carries the most weight, riding the beat with that sly, streetwise tone he was known for after leaving the Portmore Empire circle, while Dane X’s “119 Emergency” and Nicko’s “Hire Me” keep the pressure on with fast-talking, everyday hustle themes. The production keeps it lean and clipped, giving the voices room to cut through instead of crowding them out, and the set closes with the “White Collar Riddim” version.
