World Love Riddim – Lionheart Productions

World Love Riddim sits in Lionheart Productions’ 2015 catalogue as a compact eight-cut reggae juggling that leans on tenderness rather than pressure, with Jamelody’s “Touch Me” and Kerry John’s “Envy” giving the set some of its first easy hooks. Bryan Lionheart joins the line himself on “Loving, ” while Shanead Sims’ “Searching” and Annalie Prime’s “Hello” keep the mood pointed toward straight relationship songs and devotional language. The production keeps a clean, mid-tempo pulse, with a warm bassline carrying the weight and enough space left around the vocals for the singers to stretch out without crowding the rhythm. Voix and Lyricz’s “My Girl” and Bucha’s “Jah Love” close it out with the same measured, unhurried feel that runs through the whole riddim.
