The first and foremost exponent of the ‘singjay’ style, Eek A Mouse, has
carried all before him over the past thirty years busily blurring the
distinctions between roots, dancehall and crossover reggae. Eek-ology
collects up a number of rare and in-demand non-album sides including the
early self produced ‘Ripton Hylton’ recordings along with the Joe Gibbs
sessions where he first unveiled his brand new Eek-A-Mouse style.
Mouse’s long and successful partnership with producer Junjo Lawes is
represented by the non-album ‘For Hire And Removal’ and tracks like
‘Rude Boys A Foreign’ recorded for Gussie Clarke and ‘Taller Than King
Kong’ for King Jammy still ram the dance today!
"Wa Do Dem" gilt als bestes Album des Künstler und wurde seinerzeit im
Channel One Studio aufgenommen und von Overton "Scientist" Brown, Prince
Jammy und Stanley "Barnabas" Bryan in King Tubby's Studio abgemischt.
Eine erstklassige Produktion mit dem Gütesiegel Henry "Junjo" Lawes und
den Roots Radics als Backing Band, inklusive zeitlosen Stücken wie
"Ganja Smuggling", "Noah's Ark" und dem Album-Titelsong "Wa-Do-Dem". Als
Riddims konnten der "Shank I Sheck" (B1), "Hot Milk" (B5), "Going Back
To School" (A3), "Slowly But Surely" (A5) und "Hunter Man" (B2)
identifiziert werden.

for a massive summer, multi-award-winning Billboard chart-topper Sean
Paul heats up 2022 with Scorcha, his 8th full-length album and Island
Records debut. The album is a collaborative celebration of his Jamaican
heritage and dancehall roots in which Sean trades the mic with Buju
Banton and Damian Marley. Dancehall can be stereotyped as a competitive,
macho space where sound clashes are king, but 2021’s Live N Livin set
out to emphasize what’s possible when unity is the goal.
