Strictly the Best - 2 Volume Set
Back By Popular Demand Strictly The Best returns with 2 volume set in stores November 22nd
- VP Records
After departing from the traditional format for the past two years, VP Records has returned to a simultaneous release of two consecutive volumes in the latest installment of the Strictly The Best compilation. Although the past two years have been very successful for the reggae compilation, (both Volumes 31 and 32 have been some of the best selling in the history of the series), an influx of hits from the island of Jamaica has prompted VP to return to the release of Volumes 33 and 34. The most consistent reggae collection, first released in 1992, is the longest running compilation series in the reggae business.
Not since 2002, when STB Volumes 29 and 30 were released with hits like Sean Paul and Sasha’s “I’m Still in Love with You”, Mad Cobra’s “Press Trigger”, Mr. Easy’s “Drive Me Crazy”, Bounty Killa’s “Sufferah”, and Elephant Man’s “Higher Level”, has there been a two volume collection of hits that have showcased both the best in Dancehall and Roots/Lovers Rock. Now in 2005, STB Volumes 33 and 34 are here, with ground breaking hits like Turbulence’s “Notorious”, a tremendous song that picks up where Damien Marley’s “Jamrock” has left off, with a hard hitting bass and rasta chant of redemption in the face of temptation. This anthem will no doubt propel the release of Turbulence’s album of the same name coming in early 2006. Elephant Man’s “Willie Bounce”, this ode to the beloved dancer Bogle uses the melody from Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive” and introduced the world to the Willie Bounce, a new dance which can be seen on Sean Paul’s video for “We Be Burning” (a track featured on STB 32). Jah Cure’s “True Reflections”, this cry of rehabilitation from one of Jamaica’s most elusive singers will further his impressive rise to reggae super stardom. Turbulence and Sasha’s “We’ve Got the Love,” with two solo albums on the horizon, this couple shares their lovers anthem and heartfelt emotion on their follow up to the seductive “Want a Natty.” In addition, a host of newcomer’s contribute hits to the most wanted reggae compilation: Gyptian’s “Serious Times”, Producer/Entertainers Leftside and Esco’s “Tuck In U Belly”, Roger Robin’s “Take it Slow”, and Idonia’s “Lolly” round out the set of tunes that will be sure to please.
