Things A Gwan Riddim – Digital B

Things A Gwan Riddim is a 1991 Digital B production that pulls together a sharp six-song set with Bounty Killer’s Drama, Ninja Man’s Things A Gwaan, Pinchers’ Harder They Come, Sanchez’s Give It A Chance, Shabba Ranks’ Girls Wine, and Shinehead’s I Just Called. The lineup gives the riddim a nice cross-section of hardcore dancehall and melodic style, with Bounty Killer and Ninja Man bringing the rougher edge while Sanchez and Shinehead add more singjay and crossover flavor. Digital B, the label built around Bobby Digital’s sound, was already a major force in early-90s dancehall, and this cut-heavy format keeps the rhythm front and center.
