Bad Mongrell Riddim – Shocking Vibes

Shocking Vibes’ Bad Mongrell Riddim from 1997 pulls together a tight dancehall lineup with Beenie Man, Tanto Metro, Silver Cat, Little Kirk, Devonte, and Snagga Puss, plus the instrumental version cut. Beenie Man’s Bass And Drum and Tanto Metro’s Girls Best Friend are the best-known cuts here, while Snagga Puss’ The Hoop and Little Kirk’s The Way round out the set. The riddim is linked to Patrick Roberts and the Shocking Vibes camp, whose productions helped define a strong run of 90s dancehall with clean, punchy arrangements and radio-friendly hooks.
