Everybody's getting up on the dancehall thing recently and we say, more fiya. Hip Hop djs were all into it back in about 90-94, but nowadays they've either stopped playing it or have been playing the same damn songs for the last 6 years. Vinroc and Triple Threat are picking it up again, bringing in the newer stuff and some more dug up bangers. The cd gets set off live from the Beatville Lounge and Vinroc pulls a nice quick mix intro (even got a couple dub plates and skratching up in there). Then goes straight for the gut with Sean Paul's "Infiltrate." He keeps the whole thing moving with songs from all eras, just the right amount of skills, and a couple of remixes (check the Vinroc reggae mix of Aaliyah's Try Again). Tracks: Infiltrate, Who Am I, Murder She Wrote, Pose Off, Bookshelf, She Nuh Ready Yet, Dwayne, Selassie Warning, Action, Wicked Dickie, Number 2, Zunguzung, Limb By Limb, Kuff, Bubblers, Black Roses, Know Fe Chat, Hot Gal Today, way more. Nice addition: Vinroc reggae mix of Aaliyah's Try Again.
