Low-slung bass and that mid-’80s dancehall swagger carry DJ Confrontation – Live And Love, a 1987 set that lines up some serious talkers over a tough, swaggering riddim. Admiral Bailey’s “Big Belly Man” and Shabba Ranks’ “Must Love Reggae” give it the kind of blunt, streetwise energy that defined the era, while Lt Stichie, Derrick Irie and Little Twitch lean into the playful, fast-chat side of the style. The cuts are short, cheeky, and aimed straight at sound system pressure, with “Learn Fe Read And Spell” and “Me No Response” bringing extra personality to the sequence. It’s a clean snapshot of the period when dancehall was tightening its groove, leaning harder on DJs, attitude, and catchy one-line hooks.
