SLOP DEM RIDDIM produced by POT OF GOLD 1997
Slop Dem Overview
In 1997, the “Slop Dem Riddim” selector’s mix became a true street anthem, standing out at dancehall parties across Jamaica. The riddim’s base was raw and energetic, giving it a powerful edge compared to other mixes of the time. Where many selector’s mixes used softer or more digital sounds, “Slop Dem Riddim” kept things gritty and direct, making it a favorite for sound system selectors. Buccaneer’s “Invasion” brought his signature vocal style, known from his earlier hit “Bruk Out,” and matched the riddim’s intensity. Degree Pleasure’s “Tour” added catchy hooks, while Frisco Kid’s “Ratings” showed why he was one of the most exciting voices in late '90s dancehall. Red Rat, famous for his hit “Shelly Ann,” delivered “Italee” with playful energy. Richie Stephens, who has worked with international stars like Bounty Killer and Madonna, gave the mix a strong boost with “Slop Dem.” Scare Dem Crew’s “Scare Dem Attack” and the “Slop Dem — Version” instrumental rounded out the set. Behind the scenes, the mixing board king made each track shine, blending vocals and riddim for maximum impact. The producer, POT OF GOLD, was known for shaping standout dancehall releases and for being the label behind several hits in the late 1990s. Fans remember this selector’s mix as a highlight of 1997’s dancehall scene.
