Deportee Overview
In 1993, the dancehall scene got a big boost from a club-ready riddim that brought together top artists of the time. Buju Banton, known for his hit album "Til Shiloh," teamed up with Heavy D for "Hotness." Buju Banton also delivered the solo track "Deportee." Louie Culture, who later became famous for "Gangalee," added his song "Excellence." The duo of Terror Fabulous and Wayne Wonder, both respected voices in dancehall and reggae, joined forces on "Talk 'Bout." General Trees, a veteran known for his fast chatting style, contributed his own version called "Deportee." Mega Banton also appeared with "Dip From Foreign." This riddim was crafted with the help of several important labels. Concorde and MCA Records, both known for their work in reggae and dancehall, played a key role in getting the music to fans. Zola & Zola, another label involved, helped make sure the sound reached both local and international audiences. MCA Records, in particular, has a long history of promoting Jamaican music worldwide. The riddim’s energetic beats and catchy hooks made it a favorite for selectors in clubs during 1993. Even now, fans remember how these tracks kept dance floors moving. The combination of strong artists and skilled production made this riddim a classic in dancehall history.
