GET A LICK AKA BILLIE JEAN RIDDIM RIDDIM produced by STONE LOVE 1993
Get A Lick Aka Billie Jean Overview
In 1993, sound system culture was alive and strong in Jamaica. One recording that stood out was the Get A Lick Aka Billie Jean Riddim, produced by the well-known Stone Love. Stone Love is a legendary name in reggae and dancehall, both as a sound system and a label. Founded in the late 1970s by Winston "Wee Pow" Powell, Stone Love became famous for its clean, powerful sound and for launching many artists’ careers. The riddim’s rootsy vibe made it a favorite at dances and street parties. Dub engineers played a key role in shaping the sound, using effects and mixing skills to bring out the deep bass and crisp drums. Their work helped the riddim connect with crowds and selectors. The recording featured strong performances from three respected artists. Computer Paul delivered Get A Lick Aka Billie Jean Rhythm Version, showing his skills not just as a musician but also as a producer and engineer—he was involved in many classic reggae projects. Merciless, known for his sharp lyrics and energetic delivery, brought emotion to Nobody Knows. Wayne Wonder, who would later have international hits like "No Letting Go," added his smooth vocals to Only You. This release showed the lasting power of roots reggae in the 1990s and remains a key part of sound system history.
