Mud Slinging – Sinbad Production

MUD SLINGING – SINBAD PRODUCTION 198X

Noel Browne’s Mud Slinging sits right in that early-’90s dancehall pocket where the performances do the heavy lifting, and this one comes with a broad cast: 12 cuts, 12 artists, all moving over the same Sinbad production. The lineup mixes singjay style and straight-to-the-point DJ talk, so you get the bounce of Apache Scratchie’s “When Mi Start, ” the smoother pull of Colin Roache’s “Lady, ” and Conroy Smith’s “Angel” sitting alongside tougher turns from Tuffest, Stonewall Jackson, and Shaka Shamba. Papa San’s “Chill” is the one that really jumps out, snapping the rhythm into focus with that familiar early-dancehall urgency, while Hugo Barrington’s “Girls Know When To Cry” and Major Bones’ “Tek Life” keep the set from leaning too far in one direction. It’s a tidy snapshot of 1991-style dancehall energy, with Papa San leaving the sharpest mark.
