Rotterdam's Bright Message Records' second release is the highly anticipated 12-inch
vinyl "KING INNA THE RING," produced by Imperial Sound Army. The title
refers to the powerful vocal version, sung by UK-based King Stanley,
which immediately creates the impression of a true anthem and a strong
tribute to Jah Rastafari. The vocal version is paired with a dub cut
that strongly emphasizes this element of praise. The way this dub
connects the A-side and B-side of the record, reveals both Dan-I's years
of experience as a soundsystem selector and excellent production skills.
The B-side contains the fantastic melody version "TROMBONE INNA THE
RING." With an unexpected intro and upfull vibes, Matic Horns shows he
grooves like no one does and keeps the melody tuff till the end. The
final track is a dub of Matic's melody version, in which Dan-I explores
the full depth of his riddim.
"King Inna The Ring" is a versatile record that captivates from start to
finish and was played as dubplate by a handful of well-known
soundsystems during the summer of 2025.
