1996 reggae riddim from Digital Eclipse, Dont Try To Use Me gathers eight cuts around a tough, mid-90s roots-dancehall groove, with Barrington Levy and Slaughter opening things up on Ragga Dub and Raggamuffin, Frankie Paul on Stand Up, Half Pint on the title tune and Tek Me Fi Fool with Buccaneer, and Jah Mali on I Wont Be Moved and Oppression and Aggression with Remoh. David Vernon’s Battle Gets Hotter rounds out the set, giving the release a nice mix of veteran voices and sharper younger energy. Half Pint’s title track is the clear anchor here, and the whole selection keeps the focus on rugged vocals over a stripped-back, dubby rhythm.
