Style Riddim (1998) – Upstairs Records

1998 dancehall from Upstairs Records, Style Riddim keeps things tight with just two cuts: Doug E Mack’s Please Stay and Papa Beeto’s Style. The riddim was produced by Upstairs Records and, with only a pair of songs, it has the feel of a rare, stripped-back bashment release rather than a crowded compilation. Doug E Mack brings the sentimental pull on Please Stay, while Papa Beeto adds the title track’s straightforward dancehall edge. It’s a small but memorable slice of late-90s reggae production, and the two-track format makes every version count.
