And Jah just added his lyrics over the Answer Riddim (originally from Slim Smith's "Never Let Go"). There are at least 300 songs with that riddim. Another U.K classic that uses it is Smiley Culture's "Police Officer" which was also sampled in another breakbeat hardcore tune in 1992 - Launch Pad -Subway. This is just a continuation of sound system / dancehall / hip hop / rave culture and how things evolve and get interpolated and sampled. If you can make a tune that people enjoy who cares if part of it is from another song. On a Ragga Tip has some lyrics from this, a cut up version of Lynn Collins - Think for the drums and then lots of original synth stuff on top. The result is a banger that works in raves where the Lynn and Jah songs just wouldn't.
Shoutout to the Wu Tang documentary Of Mics and Men. “These Jamaicans roll up in ‘88 or ‘89 with gold chains and gold rings and I’m like, how they gettin that??”

So on so on a ragga Tip literally just looped parts of this song
And added the Amen break
@@themow432 It's not an Amen. It's Lynn Collins "Think" via Kid N Play.

This tune takes me back to the days of Eek a mouse, Barrington Levy, Lee scratch Perry Etc... Respect !!!!
Eek a mouse is still going. Saw him a couple of years ago in Liverpool
The originals are always the best!

More then 20 years after "On a Ragga Tip" hit the shelfs, it's nice to see that Jah Screechy made this tremendous return. Big Up!

Sorry to hear you were in England. That must have been rough.

Top Classic, BLESS UP JAH SCREECHY ❣️
It's been a long time,but it still sounds great today.
When this tune came out this was such a fast track compared to most other releases at the time , sounds like an A class studio production
1984
Heard this from very young still get the same feeling like it’s the 1st time every time…
The ultimate Blues party tune.
Can't quite remember when it was, 1980? My favourite period for dub and remixes.
first heard this 15 years afterr sl2 released their dance tune with this sample, and this original is much better.
The real version. Pure fire 🔥.
Me the ex-pirate radio reggae rockers 80s 90s dj played this boom tune and wore out the 7 inch vinyl...........Bonnie Charlie Bloomfield
