Ghetto Queen Riddim gathers a 1981 selection produced across Henry Lawes, Joe Gibbs and Donovan Germain for Creole, Volcano, Jah Guidance, Joe Gibbs and Penthouse, with John Holt’s Ghetto Queen at the center of the set. The lineup pulls in Captain Sinbad, Dennis Brown, Sammy Dread, and the Roots Radics, and it also traces the riddim’s reach into later cuts like John Holt and Queen Ifrica’s 2008 version and Bunu and Penthouse Players’ Queen Of The Dub. With a mix of vocal sides and a version cut, it plays like a compact early-80s showcase of heavyweight roots and dub styling, anchored by Holt’s signature feel and the deeper sound of the Radics.
