Dancehall/Raggamuffin Meets Hip Hop



Being raised in an all Trini neighbourhood, I was fortunate enough to grow up with dancehall and hiphop, and I always thought that when they crossed over, it was the shit.

Who didn't shit themselves when NWA came out with "Always Into Somethin'" and Admiral D busted shots with his raggastyle! Then Ice Cube copied them with "Wicked". But then Cypress copied him with "Lick a Shot".

Anyways... I mixed up this album, NOT JUST A COMPILATION, for those who want some raggatunez, dancehall and dub bass funkin the trunk out of their automobiles.

Enjoy the link! -- Cenzi

  3. yo! I appreciate the interest! I use Pro Tools, so yeah alot of mixing is just bpm mixing. But I had to get clever widdit. Thats why I decided to mix the DAmian Manrley track with Ghetto Red Hot, just to prove to myself I could mix two extremes...

    Part two coming soon! I take suggestions!

  11. Dope mix! did both genre's justice - look forward to part 2 - would suggest something along the same lines style/vibe wise or could go for a concious roots style mix - mixing the likes of Stephen Marley, Burning Spear, Black Uhuru, Peter Tosh with Black Thought, Talib, Cee-lo & Common for part 2.
    Also could someone somewhere please re-up those 2 100% dynamite links!!!
    nice work on the blog
    peace
