Baddoo&#8217;s &#8220;Bop Scuche&#8221; comes into the mix.

Listening to Colonel Mite&#8217;s &#8220;Bless the Selector,&#8221; recorded in London the same year that BDP were proclaiming the Bridge to be over and the P to be free (1986), I can&#8217;t help but be struck by the verbal \/ stylistic overlap. It&#8217;s pretty clear, to these ears anyway, that KRS was manipulating the very same repertory of dancehall gestures (&#8220;come inna a dance&#8221;) as his compatriots across the pond. In other words, BDP were essentially producing a NYC-tinged version of contemporary dancehall.
