NICE UP – Skankin In The Way/ Jah Wish – 2008 – Single review
RATING: 5/5
The mash-up kings are back and they triumph again. The A side of this finds Beth Ditto’s trademark soulful raucous vocals plastered all over an uptempo rocksteady instrumental (unleashing her inner ska queen in the process) that will slay dancefloors while the flip sees short-arsed nineties rapper Skee-Lo get the one thing he forgot to wish for – (i.e. to be a little less wack) granted as the cheesy original musical platform is binned in favour of Black Grass’s bass-heavy riddims. Run tings!
