Explosion Black All Stars Vol 2 – Black Scorpio

EXPLOSION BLACK ALL STARS VOL 2 – BLACK SCORPIO 1988

By 1988, Black Scorpio was already deep into the Kingston dancehall bloodstream, and Explosion Black All Stars Vol 2 catches that moment with a sharp, DJ-heavy cast that moves from General Leon’s “Laugh After Them Coolie” and General Trees’ “Bend Cock Up” to the one-two punch of Pan Head and Thriller U on “Run Down Man. ” The set leans into the rough, talkative energy of late-’80s digital-era dancehall, with Papa San, Lady G, Leroy Smart and Yellowman all slotting in against the same tough backdrop. It sits neatly beside the first Black Scorpio Explosion volume, but this one feels a little more pointed toward the deejay side of the label’s catalogue, the kind of compilation that shows how Black Scorpio was shaping the sound between singjay swagger and hardcore streetwise chatter.
