Junior Reid - Don't Play Me Dirty ft. Dre
Artist: Junior Reid
Featuring: Dre
Producer: Cool & Dre
Album: TBA
Label: JR Records
Over the past several years, there has been a noticeable increase in the number of collaborations between hip-hop and reggae artists. One of the reasons for the partnership could be a trait the two genres share in common; neither of them can stand fakes, snitches, haters or police. On his new single, reggae legend Junior Reid warns all of these groups “Don’t Play Me Dirty,” as he’s ready for the drama which may follow. Miami producers Cool & Dre easily add a street-edge to their beat, enhanced of course by Dre’s rapped hook. As Don’t Play Me Dirty gets increased spins on the street, the power of hip-hop to build cultural bridges will once again be evident.

Cool and Dre dont disappoint, but Dre's real off on this one, and so is Junior. Descent though.

Dre is an artist at heart, so the man cannot help but jump on the track when he gets the chance. Personally, I like the merger of reggae and hip-hop. However, I prefer to hear the reggae portion on the hook, and not the other way around. Reid is solid, regardless.

Almost everything Junior Reid Touches is just simply FIRE to me. I guess its the Trini in me; but his rasta ballads are always seriously on-point. Cool and Dre put a hot beat on the track and the track message is sick too! Hot Track! BANGER!

Where are my raggamuffins? Junior Reid been around for a long time--mid-1980's. He is still doing his thing. Respect! Beat is ok, I expected a reggae beat but this is alright, however, they got the horns blasting. BIG UP!

The beat goes hard on this and I've always liked Junior Reid as guest features on other artists tracks and this is a pretty solid track by him

I like how they are combining rap and reggae and making it more mainstream without losing the message by commercializing it to the common folk, at least not yet, hopefully never! The songs good...much respect to Junior Reid. This is a banger to me!

Its cool that Junior Reid is trying to be mainstream even though it seems like hes been around forever (at least for me, and most young jamaicans). Its cute how hes being hip hop but keepin it reggae..
