Riddim Driven: Scarecrow
Price 10.50 USD
Like the myriad other Riddim Driven albums released by VP, the Scarecrow volume features an ensemble of reggae vocalists singing over a given producer"s riddim, in this case producer Trevor "Baby G" James. Though the production is generally top-notch, it lumbers on for the entire CD, often getting monotonous toward the conclusion. Thus, the vocalists are left to engage you, and since they come and go swiftly, your patience is often tested throughout the listening experience. Regardless, the series has proven successful for VP because many listeners enjoy the seamless beats and the variety of vocalists. Some of the featured performers include Bounty Killer ("Yapping"), Ward 21 ("Pum"), Spragga Benz ("Cuchi Daddy"), Tanto Metro and Devonte ("Love da Style"), Mr. Lex ("We Dat"), and Elephant Man ("Never Plan Fi Dis"). ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
