Black Widow Riddim – Shines Production

Produced by S. Richards under Shines Production, Black Widow Riddim is a 1998 dancehall juggling that pulls together 16 cuts from a strong late-’90s line-up. Beenie Man’s Gwaan So sits alongside Round Head’s Flava, Red Rat’s Bizzi Blazzi, Scare Dem Crew’s Nah Run Nuh Gal, Hawkeye’s Dolly House, Merciless’ Gal Sheet and Mad Cobra’s No One Style, with Vegas, Mega Banton, Terror Fabulous, Daddy Screw, Goofy and Zebra also in the mix. The riddim was issued on Shines, run by Shane Richards, and it circulated on 7-inch at the time, which helped keep it active in the dancehall. Tight, streetwise and full of familiar voices, it captures the sound of the era in a straightforward way.
