Spragga Benz Feat. Lady Saw – Backshot

By thedirtyfrenchman

I can’t believe I haven’t talked about this song yet. This is one of the best damn dancehall songs of all time. Once again, I know this song is hella old but long ago I decided that this blog is not about new music but good music. Anyway, I first got into this song from the movie Shottas. Spragga Benz played one of the main characters in that film and he was way better than Ky-Mani Marley though he was not as good as that guy who goes crazy and ends up writing the number of people he kills in blood. See that movie if you can. It’s a little too dramatic and preachy at times, but it is a good look at badman culture. This song distinguishes itself from almost all other dancehall songs because it’s all about fuckin the ass or “batty” as is the parlance of Jamaica. It is just some back and forth between Lady Saw and Spragga about getting nasty in the ass. It’s a fun time.
