Cercee Riddim – Shanash Records

Cercee Riddim from Shanash Records landed in 1997 as a tight six-track dancehall showcase, with Daddy Monk’s Haffi Legalize, Don Flash’s On And On, Johnny Kool’s Blessed Assurance, Judah’s Like How Me Stay, and Roundhead’s Independent Girl all riding the same cut. The riddim is also known for its raw, straight-ahead feel, and Roundhead’s appearance gives it an extra lift, while the version track closes things out in classic style. Shanash’s Lee Harvey is credited with the production, and the release sits neatly in that rare 90s dancehall pocket that collectors still hunt down.
