Jammys Records’ I Know The Score riddim catches that late-’80s Waterhouse moment when digital reggae was hardening into something sharper and more insistent, with the label’s usual clean, tough programming under King Jammy’s hand. Frankie Paul is the voice most closely tied to it in memory, and the cut that made the rounds as “I Know The Score” sits alongside other strong pulls from Al Campbell, Cocoa Tea and Anthony Malvo, all leaning into the riddim’s clipped bounce and singer-friendly pull. The 1987 origin matters here, because this is one of those Jammys patterns that kept resurfacing in later years under different titles, and even the dub versions still keep that skeletal pressure intact. A proper slice of the era, right down to the version sides.
