Unknown reggae song

Post by unclefu »

Hi everyone! I've got a song, you can listen to it here:

http://www.4shared.com/mp3/5eL486g2/unknownreggae.mp3

The problem is, the file was originally called "Give it to her" by Buju Banton, but I have doubts about the title, since I didn't find any Buju Banton songs by the same name on any of the discography listings. I'm not even sure anymore that it's Buju Banton. If anyone knows the title and the artist of the song, I would be really grateful :) Thanks in advance!

Yes, Scarface is the game which has it listed with this title, thus this video being the only match for the title on YouTube. Because the uploader named it after the title listed in the game (which was found to be incorrect with some other songs as well, so I'm guessing the same must have happened here), it may be, and probably is incorrectly titled.

maybe the tune was recorded specifically for the game, that's not unhead of.

I thought about it too, but there's literally nothing about this song anywhere. Not a Wikipedia entry, not a mention about it on any of the sites listing his songs, no lyrics, nothing. And this would not be the only case, so far I've found 3-4 songs which were also titled incorrectly on the soundtracks list, so it's more likely that it's just like them and actually has a different title or even different artist. So if anyone knows this song and could tell me anything about it, it would be much appreciated :)

It is Buju Banton, so that bit is solved imo. ;)

Ok, so for now all we are (and by we, I mean I :D ) left with is the doubts about the title :)

it seems to be a remix on a homemade rhythm version. probably using reason or fruityloops..
the original song was available on 7" record only (with acapella on flip side)
full song info:

Buju Banton - Pressure Them (Shanghai riddim) Dejavu

try google, a few shops still have it on stock.

Whoa thanks :) This is the closest match anyone has found so far, only the beat is different, but I think I can live with that :) Thanks, really
