Swear Riddim – Digital B

Digital B’s Swear Riddim dates from 1994 and brings together a tight mid-90s dancehall-reggae set led by Spragga Benz and Wayne Wonder. The best-known cuts here are Ruff And Tuff and Good Swear from Spragga Benz, plus Wayne Wonder’s Face It, all riding the same clean digital groove. Bobby Digital’s productions were a big part of that era’s streamlined sound, and this one keeps the focus on sharp deejay delivery and a memorable hook rather than heavy arrangement. It’s a compact riddim with just enough movement to let the voices do the talking, and the lineup gives it a nice mix of toughness and melody.
