DJ CONFRONTATION – LIVE AND LOVE 1987
DJ Confrontation – Live And Love Overview
This season, party crowds are loving the “Live And Love” riddim. The beat is hard and full of energy, making it perfect for the dancehall scene. Compared to other compilations from the same era, this one stands out for its driving rhythm and the way each artist brings their own style. Many riddims from the late 1980s and early 1990s used digital sounds, but this one is especially gritty and bold. Admiral Bailey’s “Big Belly Man” is one of the highlights. Admiral Bailey is known for hits like “Punany” and helped shape the dancehall sound. Derrick Irie’s “Slide And Wine” is another favorite, with his unique voice and playful lyrics. Horse Man Daddy’s “Fat Belly Man” keeps the vibe fun and lively. Little Twich gives us “Make Us A Life,” showing his smooth delivery. Lt Stichie’s “Learn Fe Read And Spell” is a great example of his clever wordplay. Lt Stichie is famous for his energetic style and was one of the first dancehall artists to sign a major record deal. Other standouts include Major Worries with “Me No Response,” Pampidoo’s “Synthersizer Voice,” Risco Benty’s “Don’t Pirate It,” Shabba Ranks on “Must Love Reggae,” and Tulloch T’s “Think Me Did Gone.” The beat maker’s work is key here, giving all these tracks a strong, club-ready feel. Fans agree: this riddim is a must-play at any party.
