Don’t Cuss Rasta Riddim – Hit Sound

Don’t Cuss Rasta Riddim – Hit Sound is a 1978 U Brown production for Hit Sound with just two cuts, pairing Al Campbell’s Mr Conman and Carlton Livingston’s Don’t Cuss Rasta. The riddim carries the roots-conscious edge of late-’70s reggae, and Carlton Livingston’s name is especially tied to the title tune, which he later recalled as one of his Rastafari-themed recordings. With only a small track count, this one feels focused and direct, and it captures U Brown’s hand at a lean, vocal-driven style that suited the period well.
