Rat Trap Overview
In 1998, the dancehall scene was full of energy and new ideas. The Rat Trap Riddim fit right into this moment, mixing hard deejay styles with smooth singing. It was a sound system favorite, with a beat that worked well in parties and clubs. Even today, selectors still play this bashment classic because of its lively feel and strong lineup. The riddim came from producers MAFIA and FLUXY, a UK-based duo known for steady, high-quality work in reggae and dancehall. They started their careers as musicians before moving into production, and have worked with legends like Gregory Isaacs and Luciano. Their label, Mafia & Fluxy, has released many respected projects, helping to bring UK reggae to a wider audience. Chukki Star’s contribution, "Skirt Too Short," stands out for its catchy hook and confident delivery. Chukki Star is well known for his hit "General" and has been a key name in UK reggae for years. Doctor Lee brings "Skettl Bomb," adding a sharp edge with his vocal style. Little Clarkey’s "Bashment Girl" shows off smooth vocals, making the riddim appealing to a wide crowd. Zagu Zarr completes the set with "A Man Like Me," giving the project another strong voice. Each artist brings something special, making the riddim a true snapshot of late 90s dancehall. The mix of talents, guided by MAFIA and FLUXY’s steady hands, keeps this release popular among fans and selectors alike.
