Black Scorpio’s Virgin Riddim dates to 1996 and brings together a strong mid-’90s dancehall lineup with Beenie Man, Mad Cobra, Buccaneer, Johnny P, Jigsy King, Silver Cat, and Ricky General across a busy, strictly vocal juggling style. The set leans on punchy tunes like Beenie Man’s Ban Mi Fi Di Truth, Mad Cobra’s Tallness, and Ricky General’s Virgin Stamp and Hotter Dan Dem, while also cutting in with selections from Powerman and General B and Alley Cat. Jack Scorpio’s production has that raw, hard-edged Kingston feel that helped make the label a steady force through the era, and the riddim’s catchy, assertive groove gives the whole project its classic old-school dancehall lift.
