Ole Punk Riddim – East Coast Records

Ole Punk Riddim – East Coast Records 1996

Ole Punk Riddim — East Coast Records is a 1996 dancehall set with five cuts and a tight lineup that includes General Pecos, Major Lee, Simpleton, Spragga Benz and Tanya Stephens. The strongest names here are Spragga Benz with All Alone and Tanya Stephens with Gansta Girl, while General Pecos’ Wicked Man Dwell and Simpleton’s Death Before Dishonour help give the riddim a tougher edge. East Coast’s Aidan Jones is linked to the production on this one, and the release sits neatly in that mid-90s era when sharp deejay cuts and singjay styles were driving the sound. Also known as Gangstalee in some listings, it’s a compact riddim with just enough attitude to make its title feel earned.
