Cloak And Dagger Overview

In 1997, the Cloak And Dagger Riddim arrived on the dancehall scene with a bold energy. The journey began in the studio, where the mixing board king brought together deep basslines and sharp snares, creating a sound that captured the spirit of late '90s Jamaica. WARLORD RECORDS, known for its strong presence in the local scene, took charge of the production. The label had already built a reputation for highlighting fresh talent and shaping the sound of modern dancehall. As the riddim took shape, a group of standout artists joined the project. Daddy Lizard delivered “Hottest Thing Around,” adding his seasoned voice to the mix. Known for his work on the classic “Rough Wine,” Daddy Lizard’s contribution brought experience and fire. Determine, who had found success with “Kette Drum,” came through with “Before Mi Bust,” giving the riddim a raw edge. Diplomat added his own style with “Gilligans Girl,” while Fremo Dignitary explored emotions on “Pain & Pleasure.” Kurt Douglas kept the dance moving with “Girls Exam.” Simpleton’s “Chigoosie” and the instrumental “Cloak & Dagger” version rounded out the release. Selectors picked up the riddim quickly, spinning it in sessions across Jamaica. The combination of powerful performances and WARLORD RECORDS’ direction made Cloak And Dagger Riddim a true reflection of its era.
