Reviews
Hmmm, well, it certainly isn't a work of genius, although it is pleasantly varied. There's a couple of cuts on familiar riddims, including A2, which is on Gun In A Baggy.
Awful LP, looks like Doctor Dread got tricked into signing Little Kirk for this RAS release.
One of the most awful "reggae/dancehall" releases out there, don't buy it unless you're into completing your RAS catalogue or something crazy like that. First song, Can It Be Me, almost made me want to change the record immediately. Unfortunately, I didn't. Whoever gave this album more than 1 star rating, must have some serious hearing loss... terrible, just terrible. The only barely listenable song is Child Abuse, but the song subject makes it hard to concentrate on the riddim itself. Do yourself a favour and instead of buying this LP, just go out with your friends for a beer or go something... that's what I should've done.
