WARRIORS DON’T CRY RIDDIM produced by PENTHOUSE 1997
Warriors Dont Cry Overview
In the late 1990s, roots reggae was seeing a fresh wave of creativity. The year 1997 brought many new riddims, and one of the most memorable was the Warriors Dont Cry Riddim. This release came from PENTHOUSE, a well-known Jamaican label. PENTHOUSE was founded by Donovan Germain and has played a big role in reggae and dancehall music since the late 1980s. The label is famous for working with top artists and producing many hits over the years. On this riddim, three respected artists each brought their own style. Beres Hammond, known for his smooth voice and classic lovers rock songs, recorded "Warriors Dont Cry." Beres Hammond is also famous for hits like "Rockaway" and his album "A Moment In Time." His contribution to this riddim added a deep, soulful touch. Jahmali, another strong voice in roots reggae, delivered the song "Cry People." Jahmali is known for his conscious lyrics and positive messages, and he has worked with several important reggae producers throughout his career. Pinchers, a veteran in the reggae scene, sang "Jealous Woman." Pinchers is widely known for his big hit "Bandelero," which helped make him popular in the late 1980s. The dub cut from this project is still remembered as a cultural work of 1997. The riddim’s horn-driven sound and classic style made it a favorite for reggae fans and selectors. This release remains an important part of the era’s roots reggae output.
