Bug Riddim – In De Street 1999
Bug Overview
The 1999 reggae compilation “Bug Riddim – In De Street” features three standout tracks: “Fully Loaded” by Captain Barkey, “More Money” by Diplomat, and “Flashy Life” by Singing Prince & Ricky General. Each song is built on a strong roots instrumental, which has become memorable for reggae fans. Captain Barkey delivers “Fully Loaded,” a track that carries his energetic style. Captain Barkey was well known in the dancehall world, especially for his 1991 hit “Go Go Wine.” His voice and delivery helped define the era’s sound. Diplomat’s “More Money” is another highlight. The song captures the late 1990s reggae vibe, using the roots-based instrumental as a foundation. Diplomat’s performance fits perfectly with the rhythm, giving the track a lively feel. The third song, “Flashy Life,” is a collaboration between Singing Prince & Ricky General. Ricky General is known for his successful career in the 1990s, with songs like “Skettel Concerto” gaining attention in Jamaica and abroad. Together with Singing Prince, he brings a dynamic energy to “Flashy Life.” The roots instrumental behind these tracks was produced by a sound system producer who helped shape reggae in 1999. Fans still talk about this instrumental today, as it gave each artist a strong base to create their unique sound. The compilation remains a favorite for those who love late-90s reggae rhythms.
