Sin-Bad A Than Them Overview
Rocksteady is one of reggae’s earliest styles, known for its slow, steady rhythm and soulful melodies. In the 1990s, many reggae artists used the rocksteady flow to connect modern tracks with the genre’s roots. In 1993, the “Sin-Bad A Than Them Riddim” project brought this classic sound into new music. Apachie Scratchie’s “Gun Pon Cock” is a strong example of this style, with its steady beat and clear vocals. Cobra, who became well-known for his hit “Flex,” added two tracks to the project: “Original Kill” and “Nuh Run.” Daddy Woody joined in with “Man Ginal,” showing his smooth delivery. Frankie Paul, famous for “Sara” and known as the “Jamaican Stevie Wonder,” contributed the song “Heart Attack.” General Tk’s “Fancyness” added even more variety to the mix. Other artists on the riddim include Gospel Fish with “You Must Be Fool,” Mike Ninja with “Miser,” and Nardo Ranks with “Step Up In Life.” Oneil Shines performed “When Will You Love,” and Spanner Banner, known for his hit “Life Goes On,” recorded “Battle Field.” SINBAD PRODUCTION produced the project, shaping the sound with dub echoes and classic reggae elements. The label is known for supporting roots reggae and helping artists reach wider audiences. In 1993, this riddim was a favorite on reggae playlists, keeping the rocksteady tradition alive.
