Jah Jah Is The Conqueror Riddim – Cousins Records

Deep cut. Cousins Records’ 2003 Jah Jah Is The Conqueror Riddim keeps it lean with just two vocal cuts, letting Linval Thompson’s “Jah Is The Conqueror” and Richie Davis’ “Babylon System” sit right up front on the same version. There’s no clutter here, just that roots-weight pulse and the kind of sequencing that makes you hear each singer’s approach against the same backdrop. Linval’s tune carries the more obvious hook, while Richie Davis pushes the anti-Babylon message with a slightly tougher edge. The release is listed as a two-track reggae set from Cousins Records, with both cuts paired to their dub counterparts on the original 10-inch issue. 2003, Cousins Records.
