2. Da Style Deh
Unable to play the U.S., Busy Signal has instead focused much of his international efforts on the comparatively untapped African reggae market. His music has increasingly reflected this influence, most notably on the “Da Style Deh.” (See also: “Jafrican Ting,” et. al) Personally, I love spinning Douster’s trippy Dagger remix, a staple of my uptempo electro/dancehall segment, even more than the original. DJs are always either trying to shazam it, peeking over my shoulder to see what it is. —DJ Gravy
