Miss Hottie Hottie Riddim – Firehouse Crew

Miss Hottie Hottie Riddim is a 1999 Firehouse Crew production released on VP Records, pairing Mikey General’s title cut Miss Hottie Hottie with Simpleton’s Jah Save I and I and Triston Palmer’s See Dem Ah Come. The rhythm also turns up on other Firehouse Crew-linked cuts from the same period, which gives it that late-’90s roots-and-culture feel without drifting too far from a crisp singjay delivery. Mikey General had a strong run with the crew around this time, and Triston Palmer’s contribution keeps the set grounded with a direct, conscious message.
