If you like Shaggy's unique blend of reggae with hip-hop beats (and sometimes hip-hop macho posturing as well) then as a complete work this is probably his best album. Songs like "Oh Carolina" and "Nice and Lovely" are genuine new reggae gems from the early to mid-Nineties, and I spent a great deal of my younger teenage years enjoying this album. If you like some of Shaggy's radio hits, this album isn't too much of a stretch from those songs and I would say that you would most likely enjoy it.

As much as I enjoy listening to his music now, nothing compares to this cd! It seems that Shaggy has gone too mainstream and needs to go back to his roots. I first started listening to him when I saw his videos on BET's Caribbean Rhythms (Please BET...bring it back!!), and would like nothing better if he would (with Rayvon) go back to his old style.

I bought this CD this first day it came out, The songs are great, everything from Tek Set to Bedroom Bounty Hunter to the hit Oh Carolina. I wish Shaggy would go back to the sounds of this album

This album is not as good as "Bombastic", but it's still a very good one.
Good songs with Shaggy's great interpretation. Highly recommended.
