Stamina Daddy Riddim Aka Gold Spoon Riddim – Various Artists

Out of Jamaica’s mid-2000s dancehall rush, the Stamina Daddy, also called Gold Spoon, turned up as a lean four-track juggling with a sharp mix of attitude and cheek. Macka Diamond opens with “Oh What A Pity, ” Voicemail keep the party light on “Borrow Clothes, ” and Vybz Kartel’s “Whe Di Bleaching Fa” lands as the hardest talking point here, with its trademark mix of sly humour and social jab. The set also folds in Ne-Yo’s “Sexy Love” remake as a Stamina Daddy remix, which gives the riddim a quick pop crossover twist without leaving the dancehall groove behind. Issued in 2006, the release lists four tracks from four different acts.
