A Who Thing Riddim sits right in that late-’90s dancehall pocket where the rhythm is lean, rattling, and built to leave space for the DJ to cut through. Credited to Slam Records from 1999, it’s also listed as A Who Thing aka Jigga Riddim, with Bulby York and Lynford Marshall attached to the production, which puts it in the company of some serious studio hands from that era. The cast is a strong one: Anthony B’s “Jailhouse, ” Capleton’s “Twist And Turn, ” and Lexxus’s “Make Some Money” all point to the kind of street-level energy the riddim was chasing, while Captain Barkey, General B, and Delly Ranks keep the momentum moving. The version rides a taut mid-tempo pulse with a clipped keyboard figure and a heavy bass line that never really lets up.
