Who Cares Riddim – 2 Miles Records

Luciano and Lukie D anchor the Who Cares Riddim with the kind of conscious energy 2 Miles Records was chasing in the early 2000s, and their cuts sit neatly beside EQ. ’s “Kingston Town” and Natty King’s “No Guns To Town. ” The set runs eight tracks deep and closes with a version, so you get the vocal sides first and the instrumental payoff at the end, which was a common way to frame a roots-heavy juggling plate in that era. Junior Moore’s title tune, “Who Cares, ” keeps the message front and center, while Night Dew’s “Put Back Dancehall” and Turbo Blacks’ “Round Here No Good Again” widen the mood without breaking the flow. Released in 2003, it collects eight different voices on one riddim from 2 Miles Records.
