OLDIES SUNDAY: Apache Scratchy – New Year New Law (1991)

Happy New Year! We’re officially in the year 2023. May it be one of your best years yet. We’re kicking it off with Oldies Sunday! Today’s selection comes from Apache Scratchy with the track, “New Year New Law“.

Produced by Oret Smith and released through Godfather Records in 1991, Apache Scratchy had a lot to share on “New Year New Law”. With positive vibes to share all around, Apache wanted things to be better for everyone. With the economy making it harder for people to live everyday, he called out the Government to make things right. With a strong faith, he encouraged everyone to seek Jah and live better lives, and that’s law. Apache Scratchy had a strong stance on “New Year New Law”, and it went down as one of his singles that did well, and good selection to start off the new year. Apache was considered one of the top lyricists and 80s and early 90s Dancehall, and he held his own with whatever was thrown his way.

Since the release of “New Year New Law”, Apache Scratchy went on to release more music including singles, and albums including “Father & Son“, which was released through Super Cat’s Wild Apache label. Now living overseas, he still makes appearances, performing at various events around the world. Make 2023 your year!
