Hype Riddim – Ghetto Quality Records

Ghetto Quality Records’ Hype Riddim from 1998 gathers a strong late-90s dancehall lineup, with Evette’s So Nice, Frisco Kid’s The Right Man, General Degree’s Giddy Up Giddy Up, Vegas’ Model Pon Dem, Richie Stephens’ Call Mi Name, and TOK’s Enjoy among the key cuts. The set also includes Hawkeye, Mr. Easy, Sweet C, and U T Dread on the Shotta Bwoy track, giving the riddim a mix of tougher DJ energy and smoother vocal turns. Ghetto Quality kept the arrangement busy and vocal-heavy, and the selection reflects the period when Jamaican riddims were packed with multiple artists cutting the same rhythm for different corners of the dance.
