Album Notes Crossover dancehall artist Shaggy started churning out hits in the early 1990s when his distinctive baritone voice and penchant for hooky, pop-inflected dancehall grooves struck a chord. Those early hits, "Boombastic" and a cover of the Folkes Brothers' "Oh, Carolina," kick off this best-of set. In fact, THE BEST OF SHAGGY sticks to the artist's early work, so those looking for hits from the 2000s, like "It Wasn't Me" and "Angel," won't find them. Even so, the 12 tracks that make up this compilation represent Shaggy's fun, bouncy, good-time music as it boomed from jeeps and clubs in Brooklyn and elsewhere in the `90s.
