Exterminator Overview

In 1994, a new reggae riddim took shape inside the walls of an influential Kingston studio. Guided by the skilled hand of Phillip Burrell, the riddim’s journey began with deep roots and a clear vision. Burrell, the driving force behind the Exterminator label, was already known for his work with top reggae artists and for producing hits that pushed the genre forward. His approach brought together musicians and singers who shared a love for authentic roots sounds. The riddim quickly attracted talent. Glen Ricks lent his voice to “How Can I Forget,” bringing soulful warmth and heartfelt delivery. Luciano, a rising star at the time, added his powerful message with “Raggamuffin,” a song that would help define his career as one of reggae’s most respected voices. Phillip Burrell himself contributed with “Tom The Peeper Version,” showing his versatility beyond producing. Tiger, known for his energetic style, delivered “Tom The Peeper,” adding a dancehall edge that made the riddim stand out. Working together, these artists and the studio team created a sound that was both classic and new. The riddim became a favorite among reggae fans, remembered for its roots foundation and the unique voices that shaped it. The release marked another milestone for Exterminator, showing the label’s lasting impact on reggae music.
