Chaka Demus & Pliers: “Murder She Wrote” (1992)
The sixth or seventh time is charm, as they say. Five years of attempts over so many producers is what it took to make “Murder She Wrote” a reality. In 1987, Pliers used Shabba Ranks’ “Original (Fresh)” riddim produced by Harry J., then with Clifton “Specialist” Dillon and then with Jack Scorpio. He then came to the iconic Sonic Sounds label in 1992 where he took pieces of a Bobby Digital- produced track (not referring to as RZA) and gave it to Sly & Robbie and engineer Jason Lee. That was where both Pliers and Chaka Demus passed around vocal duties and toasts over the mixing board, melting those toasts and melodic verses together and created the “Bam Bam” rhythm. 
But most of the real meat comes from Chaka- and Pliers’ subject: a girl of Maxine which the duo paint her as the sweet-and-innocent yet devious type. They not only show her care-free promiscuity, but also learn that she’s had many an abortion. Even in one case Pliers realized that she’s had another one six months in. That’s where the song title, “Murder She Wrote”, comes in, which it means someone who is so cunning and slick in doing such things and gets away with it. It was named and chosen by Pliers who happened to be a big fan of the show (1984-1996) and often thought of when hearing this single. 
Obviously, we can’t leave Angela Lansbury behind when asked about one of dancehall’s all-time greatest songs named after her show: "Oh, reggae! Oh, I'm thrilled to be part of reggae. Of course." Yeah, you fucking go, Angela.
