Hidden Reggae Gems that you may have missed back in time

Blessings and respect to all of the massive out there. Music we seh  all di way. so some much reggae music is released in Jamaica every week that even the top DJs miss something. So today we take a big jump back in time, going through the catalogue of CDs and found these 2 gems. Songs that didn't get their due back in the day but if you give them a listen, they were at the time well ahead and should have shine, shine bright like a diamond (in Rhi Rhi voice and melody)

Anyways listen and  acquaint yourself with these songs that should have been big  hits. 

Firstly the British Knight Riddim, produced by Kareem Goodison of Orange Hill Records. This hip hop beat fused with dancehall had  reggae stars on the riddim including Aidonia, Anthony B and Jovi Rockwell. However the lead singe by Fantan Mojah is the stand out . when Fantan was the energetic rasta with the back back, long before the girls' skin out videos. Anyway check it out his characteristic chanting and his unique vocal styling that make the fusion sound work. mixed by 3 time Grammy Sound Engineer and recent JARIAH 2021 Honoree  Rorey Baker. the song is special.....Maaaad


 

Then we go back to our favourite Danish reggae singer Natasja, off her Album "Release" back in was another hip hope fusion with dancehall "Summercute" still has a vibe. Produced the multi talented Danish producer Pharfar, with Natasja sitting on the riddim like a lizard on a limb this one should have been  another world wide stunner ...Maad Music
