Filthy London Riddim – Sip A Cup Records1999
Filthy London Overview
The Filthy London Riddim release from 1999 brought together a strong lineup of dancehall tracks and artists. The collection starts with Brian Whitehouse & Spitter Ranx on “Filthy,” a song that sets the tone with its lively energy. Grinds Man follows with “Remix Medley,” adding his own flavour to the riddim. Sandeeno steps up with “Lead By Far,” a track that shows his confident delivery. Sandino & Screamer Don join forces on “Queen & Crown,” while Screamer Don also appears solo with “Tell A Gal.” The release is rounded off by Wayne Lyrics with “Star Baller.” Each artist brings something different to the riddim. Sandeeno was well known in the UK reggae scene and had hits like “Tear Down Babylon.” Screamer Don, active in the 1990s, worked with several sound systems and helped shape the UK dancehall sound. Grinds Man’s “Remix Medley” stands out for its creative approach. The riddim’s producer, Tony Phillips, was a respected figure in UK reggae and dancehall. He worked with many top artists and brought a crisp, modern sound to his productions. His experience helped give the Filthy London Riddim its strong, upbeat feel. When it was released, this riddim became a favourite for selectors, giving dancehall sessions new energy. It remains a standout from the late nineties bashment era.
