Now that everybody wears Rastafarian-flavored red, green, and gold wristbands and the Signal De Plane and Pon De River dances have grown to macarena-like proportions, you have Sean Paul (and the guy who actually invented these dances, the "Energy God" Elephant Man) to thank. This re-release intended for international markets trims the fat from the original Dutty Rock by losing the filler skits, songs ("It's On"), and adding the previously unavailable "Baby Boy" single featuring Beyonce's seductive croons. This one's for fans who don't have Beyonce's Dangerously in Love album (the only other place to get this popular reggae-lite single) and those who want to renew their love affair with the Diwali riddim popularized on Paul's "Get Busy"--and subsequently re-sung on chart toppers by Lumidee ("Never Leave You (Uh Oooh, Uh Oooh)") and fellow dancehall vocalist Wayne Wonder ("No Letting Go"). --Dalton Higgins

Product Description

4.0 out of 5 stars An amazing album from the prince of Dance Hall!, March 3, 2006

By	Jenny J.J.I. "A New Yorker" (That Lives in Northern Nevada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Sean Paul's "Dutty Rock" is one of the great dance hall albums that are out there. He continuously gave out hits throughout this whole album. Some of the end songs aren't as powerful as the songs at the beginning such as "Baby Boy", "Gimme The Light", "Get Busy", and "Concrete". His album is very good and definitely worth the cost. Sean Paul has outdone himself on his 2nd album which defiantly places him on the charts.

Sean Paul is Prince of the Dancehall because Beenie man has the "king" title already. This music originates from way back before rap/hip-hop even got started. Sean Paul had thrown some new flavor in there and makes a bangin' dance album. Some people don't like it because they can't understand him, but whose fault is that? People should realize that this music is rich in culture and if he sang it so that everyone could understand it he would be denying the heritage that made the music possible.

Probably this will help you out: almost every song on his album fades out with Sean still singing or the music still playing. I suggest looking up lyrics if you're really interested... or I wouldn't bother... Sean's voice is amazing and is fairly fun to listen to... most the music is upbeat... so if your looking for the sounds then this album is for you. Keep on bumpin' Sean Paul, and keep confusing the ignorant!

4.0 out of 5 stars Review for "Dutty Rock" by Sean Paul, July 11, 2005

By	Robert Koehler (Tampa, Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Usually, it gets on my nerves when half of an album is collaborations, because it leaves me feeling like the artist isn't good enough to sing songs by themself. (For example, all of Ciara's big hits have been collaborations). But with Sean Paul, it seems like collaborations are almost a necessity. While some of the fillers, notably "Punkie", are great, it's the big hits that attract the most attention. Even light dancehall fans will have heard "I'm Still In Love With You" (featuring Sasha) and most will report that they love it. "Baby Boy" is OK, but I'm just tired of Beyoncé. "Gimme The Light" and "Like Glue" are the two main hits from this album, and they are the ones that most fans favor. Sean Paul is a very talented and -authentic- Jamaican rapper, which is one of the things I admire about him. He's not pretending to be something he's not, like so many artists today try to do. I wouldn't say this album is very "reggae", like many people expect. It is definetely across between dancehall and rap. It's a unique sound that I just love. I recommend this album to ANYONE trying to experience a different kind of music.

Sean Paul's "Dutty Rock" is one of the best dancehall albums ever. He keeps giving hits after hits continuously throughout the whole CD. Some of the end songs aren't as powerful as the songs at the beginning such as "Baby Boy", "Gimme The Light", "Get Busy", and "Concrete". His CD is very good and definentally worth the cost. Sean Paul has outdone himself for his 2nd album.
