Reception
Template:Album ratings Elena Oumano of the Los Angeles Times wrote, "This Brooklyn-based reggae rapper has two areas of interest--the bedroom and the dance floor. That’s evident from the opening track and title song, a cheerfully irreverent reworking of a classic spiritual. Producer Sting International frames Shaggy’s lighthearted rapping with fat, squishy beats and unexpected samples--like a 'Carmen' aria on 'Bedroom Bounty Hunter' and the 'Peter Gunn' theme on 'Oh Carolina'."[1]
