Street Riddim – VP Records

Street Riddim – VP Records 1999

Street Riddim came out in 1999 on VP Records and keeps it tight with just three cuts from two artists: Shinehead’s My Boo in both clean radio and dirty street versions, plus Sleepy Wonder’s Street Life. It’s a short, straight-to-the-point set with a sharp contrast between the polished and explicit takes of My Boo, which gives the release its main draw. Shinehead had already built a strong reputation as a roots, reggae, and dancehall crossover voice, and his presence gives the riddim extra weight. With only three tracks, this one feels more like a focused promo-style release than a crowded compilation, and that lean format is part of its appeal.

Street Riddim Tracklist:

1. Shinehead – My Boo (Radio Version Clean)
