At the age of 19, Jamaican deejay Buju Banton announced his arrival with this 1992 LP, full of skeletal beats and controversial lyrics—all powered by his gruff and nimble voice. Springing drums turn to bouncing bedsprings as Banton gruffly boasts about being a “body terrorist” on “Low Di Buddy,” while anthemic big beats shake the walls on “Bring Yuh Body Come,” and “Quick” sees the then-teenager riding the ageless Stalag rhythm, finding new wrinkles in it with his quicksilver tongue.
