Liberation Riddim Aka Jah Jah City (1998) – Hmg Records

HMG Records’ Liberation Riddim, also known as Jah Jah City, came through in 1998 with a compact six-track lineup anchored by Capleton’s fiery Jah Jah City and strong cuts from Jah Cure, Morgan Heritage, Ras Shiloh, and Bush Man. The riddim was driven by Morgan Heritage and Denroy Morgan, and it carries that late-90s roots-reggae energy with conscious lyrics and a tight, unified feel. Morgan Heritage appears twice on the set with Liberation and Never, while Ras Shiloh’s Onto Zion and Bush Man’s Truely Great add more depth to the selection. Capleton’s tune became the most familiar anthem from the project, helping make this one of HMG’s better-remembered releases from that period.
