Sperlena Riddim – Ffrench

Sperlena Riddim – Ffrench is a 2000 reggae rhythm release produced by Robert Ffrench, issued on the Ffrench label. The four-track set pairs Mikey General’s Bless To Be Stress, Richie Spice’s Only Jah and Yami Bolo’s Emergency with the instrumental version, and Richie Spice gives the lineup its strongest early-2000s pull. Ffrench had already established himself as a producer and label owner by this point, and the riddim keeps a lean, rootsy feel that leaves plenty of room for the singers. Its small tracklist and clean version cut make it a straightforward, vocal-driven session.
