    • 1. They Wanna Know
    • 2. Dancehall Dub

    London's Ghost Writerz are back with a banger! Following a slew of releases on Tru Thoughts and a recent mixtape "Welcome To Ghost Town" heating up the streets, Jimmy Screech and Sleepy Time Ghost return with a big splash on NICE UP! Records.
    Based around a familiar reggae riddim, the track tells the tale of Jimmy's foundation in soundsystem culture, starting in the 80s and name-checking legends such as Shabba Ranks, Yellowman, Smiley Culture along the way. As the riddim flips we shift forward a generation, 90s dancehall and rap dominate, giving props to hip hop royalty such as Busta Rhymes and 2Pac, then finally firing off a huge jungle climax, dripping in enough amen breaks to set the dancefloor alight whilst giving a little history of the musical heritage behind Ghost Writerz
