Arab Riddim produced by Paul Bartley and N. McNamee for Border Clash 1994
Arab Overview
The Arab Riddim is a classic dancehall collection from 1994, produced by Paul Bartley and N. McNamee for the Border Clash label. This yard beat captured the energy of late-night parties and helped shape the sound of dancehall in the mid-1990s. Border Clash was known for its raw, street-inspired productions, and Arab Riddim became one of its most memorable releases. Paul Bartley, one of the producers, was also behind the “Arab Instrumental” track in this collection. He worked closely with N. McNamee to create a riddim that stood out for its lively rhythms and catchy melodies. Their work with Border Clash helped bring new attention to dancehall’s evolving sound during that era. Skull Man is the featured artist on two tracks: “Competition” and “Sneeze.” Skull Man was active in the 1990s dancehall scene and built a reputation for his energetic vocal style. “Competition” and “Sneeze” both highlight his ability to ride the riddim with confidence and style. The Arab Riddim collection is remembered for its strong street vibe and infectious beats. It remains a favorite among fans of old-school dancehall and is often played at parties that celebrate the golden age of the genre.
