Mercury Riddim – Greensleeve Records is a 1999 dancehall release from Greensleeves Records that pulls together a sharp late-90s lineup with Beenie Man, Sean Paul, Red Rat, Merciless, Vegas, Hawkeye, Lukie D and more. Standout cuts include Beenie Man’s Sleep With Me, Sean Paul’s Work With It, Red Rat’s Girl With A Car and Vegas’ Buss Your Bubble, alongside ARP’s Mamma Makossa and Dutty Cup Crew’s Happy Days. The set captures that era’s crossover-ready dancehall sound, with big-name voices riding a rhythm that was built for sound systems and radio alike. Greensleeves was deep into its riddim era by this point, and Mercury fits neatly into the label’s run of 1999 various-artist dancehall compilations.
