CUSS CUSS RIDDIM produced by TAXI RECORDS 2006
Cuss Cuss Overview
In 2006, reggae fans found new energy in the Cuss Cuss Riddim compilation. This release came from TAXI RECORDS, a label started by Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare. TAXI RECORDS is famous for shaping reggae and dancehall music since the late 1970s, with classic productions and global influence. The compilation features strong artists. Anthony Red Rose brings his song "Changes." He is known for his 1985 hit "Tempo," a dancehall classic. Junior Kelly adds "Youths Dem Nah Cool." Kelly is celebrated for his conscious lyrics and his popular track "Love So Nice," which brought him international attention. Mutabaruka’s "Bring the Fire" stands out with his powerful spoken word style. Mutabaruka is respected for his poetry and activism, and his album "Melanin Man" was nominated for a Grammy Award. Prilly Hamilton’s "Cool" adds a smooth touch to the riddim. While not as widely known as the others, Prilly Hamilton’s voice fits well in this roots-driven set. Sly and Robbie, the duo behind TAXI RECORDS, close things with "Cuss Cuss Version." Their work as producers and musicians has shaped the sound of reggae for decades, and they have played with artists from Black Uhuru to Grace Jones. This 2006 dub cut kept reggae’s roots alive, bringing together respected names and timeless rhythms.
