Make sure you check out the other wonderful images from the biggest artists, producers and studio's of the 80s.

Sugar Minott & Conroy Smith - Poor People

"Poor People" (Jah Children Invasion IV - LP)
Alternate cut to the Jah Life release. The late, great Sugar Minott provides haunting background vocals as well as production. His Youth Promotion digital riddims feature a gritty and unpolished sound, which represents the raw talent of the young artists he helped to become polished stars. listen

Teenage Lover Now A Teenage Loser

"Teenager Lover" (Youth Promotion, '86)
by Stevie Wonder is about the ills of teenage pregnancy. "She jus a teenage lover, but now she end up as a teenage loser." The sparse, dusty and gritty youth promotion sound provides a fitting backdrop for the lyrical content by Stevie. An alternate (different mix) version of this song is on the VA-Jah Children Invasion IV LP. listen
