Ragga Scum – History of Ragga Jungle Vol. 1: The Congo Natty Dynasty

I have a special fondness for ragga, not because I still listen to it or expect a ragga revival. Let’s be clear, it lived and died in the mid 1990s. I’m fond of it because this is the music that grew up jungle music and made it a distinct sound. Congo Natty were on the forefront of that sound, and it’s fitting that they be the ones to release a mix to commemorate some of these tracks.

Special thanks to Dubplate Digest for the heads up.
