Deportee Riddim – Concorde / MCA Records / Zola & Zola

Deportee Riddim lands in the 1993 dancehall wave as a various-artists set linked to Concorde, MCA Records, and Zola and Zola, with Buju Banton leading the way on Deportee and Hotness alongside Heavy D. The selection also brings in Louie Culture on Excellence, Terror Fabulous and Wayne Wonder on Talk ’Bout, General Trees on Deportee, and Mega Banton on Dip From Foreign, plus an instrumental cut. It sits close to Buju’s socially aware early-’90s run, when Deportee was already one of his better-known songs, and the combination of voices gives the rhythm a strong crossover feel without losing its street-level dancehall edge.
