Buju Banton’s “Want You Gal” is the kind of cut that immediately puts the Zig Riddim in motion, with the rest of the lineup leaning hard on veteran dancehall muscle from Capleton, Singing Melody, Jigsy King, Shanty B, and Sizzla alongside Kool Shade. The riddim itself has that clipped, springy 2010-era pulse: brisk drums, a sharp digital swing, and enough low-end thump to keep it moving without getting muddy. Capleton comes in with the fiery “She Hotta, ” while Sizzla and Kool Shade’s “Di Youths Dem Suffering” pushes a more conscious edge, so the set doesn’t just live in party talk. Issued in 2010, it sits right in that period when dancehall was still balancing gunman bravado, gallis tension, and social commentary on the same beat.
