ALBUM DESCRIPTION
Straight 'outta the United Kingdom, Funda & Lightning Recordings delivers a hot new dancehall compilation with "Double Trouble!" Featuring a wide range of artists from around the world, "Double Trouble" delivers 20 hot new songs over two explosive dancehall riddims!
"Golden Axe," the compilation's first riddim, showcases excellent contributions from veteran and unknown artists alike. Trinidad's Tiko sets the bar high with, thick energetic flows on "Big Mouth," while several Jamaican dancehall artists also ride the riddim with style. Out of the APS camp, Revelation contributes rapid-fire lyrics on "Amen," and Shadroc keeps things smooth with a powerful DJ style on "Outta Yuh Way." Other stand out songs on this riddim include "Lively Up Yourself," by Jamaica's St. Matthew and "Him a di King," by D.A. Jay.
Track number 10 kicks off the "High Priest" riddim with an excellent tune by the U.K.'s Solid R.O.C.K. This is definitely one of the most hype tunes on the whole album! Mysta Oracle & Ronnell Benjamin keep the energy going with "Psalm 150," aptly balancing DJ deliveries and catchy melodies for an inspiring, well-crafted song. On track 19, Spanna busts deep lyrics in a top quality DJ style for one of the compilation's biggest boomshots!
With two hot riddims and a slew of great artists, "Double Trouble," is an excellent offering from Funda & Lightning Recordings. If you're looking for a fresh, hard-hitting compilation to breathe some life into your sound system, snatch up a copy of this new release today!
