Riko Dan - Hard Life

riko_dan_hard_life-image01 Just got back from the studio where we've been mixing the track that Riko Dan voiced on our Piano riddim last Saturday. He's done an anti-violence reality tune but impressively retained his characteristic badman style, telling the story of a wayward youth while warning him against the dangers of badmanism. This weekend we're voicing Warrior Queen and Quality Diamond, with YT and Rubi Dan to follow in the next few weeks - the singles should be out on our Scandal Bag label early 2008.

In the meantime, check out Hard Life, another excellent positive reality tune from Riko:

This track features on his long awaited, finally upcoming mix CD, The Truth Vol 1, which should be in stores soon, with Riko taking on grime, bashment, reggae and jungle rhythms to devastating effect.

Yes Gabe! Henry played me the Riko and Diamond cuts yesterday - sounds wicked and bad mate. Excellent work as always.
