HERITAGE: Badness & Jammer Connect With Producer Silverlink For This Energetic Soca-Meets-Grime Anthem "The Message Is Love" (2008)
August 05, 2022
Here it is, potentially one of the grime scene's most energetic tunes ever.
A blitzkrieg of grime-meets-soca from producer Silverlink (who basically disappeared after this dropped), and that's before you even get to Badness and Jammer's quick-fire shelling about their, shall we say, romantic prowess.
Released via Magic's No Hats No Hoods, "The Message Is Love" was a really surprising release that burst beyond the expected 140bpm parameters, all the way up to 160. With nu-rave on the rise and dubstep beginning to show a few cracks, this tune was a reminder of grime's thrilling potential and always paying homage to its Caribbean roots.
More than anything, it was just ridiculously fun.
