Mind Yu Dis Overview

The roots reggae sound is still strong today, thanks to classic instrumentals and new blends with other genres. The MIND YU DIS RIDDIM, produced by the well-known label MUSIC WORKS, is a good example of this. MUSIC WORKS was started by Augustus "Gussie" Clarke, a key figure in Jamaican music. The label is famous for working with many top artists and for shaping reggae in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This riddim brings together artists who each add their own style. Admiral Tibett’s “Pick Of The Past” shows his roots reggae spirit. Admiral Tibett is known for his conscious lyrics, and his hit “Serious Time” is loved by many reggae fans. Chaka Demus, with “Give A Little Love,” mixes dancehall energy into the roots sound. Chaka Demus is also famous for his later work with Pliers, especially the global hit “Tease Me.” Ian Sweetness keeps the vibe smooth with “Keep It Coming,” while Lucon Scissors? Ft. Gregory Isaacs bring their skills to “Mind You Disrespect.” Gregory Isaacs, called the “Cool Ruler,” is known worldwide for his classic “Night Nurse.” His voice on “Mind You Disrespect” adds depth to the riddim.
