Released in 2006, the two-disc NAH NO MERCY set presents many of the finest tracks by the seminal dancehall reggae artist Bounty Killer (aka Rodney Price). Renowned for his deep voice, deft delivery, and hard-hitting songs ("New Gun," "Down in the Ghetto"), the Jamaican star is also capable of surprising tenderness, as on the thoughtful "Mama." For listeners seeking to explore Bounty Killer's ruffneck reality, NAH NO MERCY is an intense and thorough introduction.

Uncut (p.75) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he anthems come thick and fast, balancing badman business with sharp observations of ghetto life."

The Trenchtown, Jamaica-born Bounty Killer (n� Rodney Price) spent time in dancehalls as a child, where his father ran a popular reggae sound system. Inevitably, Bounty Killer became an MC himself, recording his first songs (under the name "Bounty Hunter") in the mid 1990s with influential dancehall producer King Jammy. Influenced by American hip-hop as much as reggae, his "ragga" style is streetwise and aggressive, with lyrics about guns, more guns, political corruption, and his war with the police and other MCs (Beenie Man being his biggest rival). Throughout the '90s and 2000s, Bounty Killer has hit the mainstream as a guest singer on tracks by artists such as No Doubt, the Fugees, and Mobb Deep, and continues to tour and record prolifically.
