Excitement Overview
Selector’s Choice Records was behind one of 1997’s most memorable dancehall releases. The Excitement Riddim brought a fresh energy to bashment parties that year, with a strong lineup of top artists. Admiral Tibett set the tone with “Excitement.” Known for his conscious lyrics, Admiral Tibett rose to fame in the late 1980s with hits like “Serious Time.” On this riddim, he brought his signature earnest delivery, adding a rootsy edge to the bashment vibe. Dj Culture delivered “Nah Let Go,” bringing his unique style to the mix. Frisco Kid, who gained attention with songs like “Gal Pon De Side,” came strong with “Mad Mad Mad.” His playful flow and energetic voice made this track a favorite in dancehall circles. The pairing of Roundhead & General B on “Hype” added more fire. Both artists are members of the Monster Shack Crew, known for their lively performances and hits in the late 1990s. Scare Dem Crew, a group that included Elephant Man and Bounty Killer, contributed “Money A Show.” Their presence gave the riddim extra weight, as the crew was one of the most influential in dancehall at the time. The riddim was crafted by producer MONEY MUSS, a name respected for sharp, dancefloor-driven productions in the late 1990s. MONEY MUSS was known for blending heavy basslines with catchy hooks, helping songs like these become staples in dancehall sets. In 1997, this bashment release was a must-play for selectors, giving the dancehall crowd plenty to move to.
