Shatta Bomb Riddim – Study Gwot Productions

Out of the 2016 dancehall crop, Shatta Bomb feels like one of those juggling sets rooted in the lean, tougher side of the scene rather than any polished crossover push. Study Gwot Productions lines up a dozen cuts here, with Nnay’s “I Like That, ” Matitoff’s “Salute, ” and Bigroots’ “Bad” doing the heavy lifting while the bonus pairing with Dj Charlan and Shabba Ranks gives the riddim its sharpest name-check. The titles alone point to the kind of raw, streetwise energy the package is chasing, and that’s exactly where it sits alongside the producer’s later work: more about local pressure and sound-system attitude than radio gloss. With its 2016 date and that extra Shabba Ranks touch, it lands as a compact, no-frills entry in Study Gwot’s catalogue.
