Gal Scream Riddim – Fatta D International

Gal Scream Riddim by Fatta D International is a 1997 dancehall set with a tight three-song lineup and a clear early-to-mid-’90s vibe. The cut brings together Beenie Man on Hot Gal Flexing, Daddy Screw on Run Him, and Nitty Kutchie on Gal Scream, with the Beenie and Daddy Screw tunes doing most of the heavy lifting. Beenie Man’s presence gives it extra pull, while Nitty Kutchie’s title track ties the whole thing back to the riddim name. It’s a short release, but that also keeps the focus on the rhythm and the voices riding it, which is very much the point of a dancehall juggling from that era.
