Tell Me Why Riddim – Stringray Records

A small Kingston-era roots set from 2003, this one keeps the focus tight: three cuts, three voices, and Stingray Records behind the boards. Bushman’s “Tell Me Why” feels like the center of gravity, the kind of steady, message-driven tune Luciano could slide into on “Come To My World” without breaking the mood, while 14 K’s “Wait Till My Turn” adds a younger edge to the sequence. Stingray had a habit of pairing clean, uncluttered rhythms with strong singers, and here that approach lets the songs do the talking rather than crowding them. It’s a brief release, but that brevity is part of the appeal.
