GRAMMY winning reggae superstar Shaggy delivers another hit-stacked album with HOTSHOT. The album incorporates a mix of styles and songwriting textures, from the singer`s customary super party vibe to the more mellow qualities of songs such as "Why Me Lord," "Keepin` it Real," and "Hope," the latter of which was featured in the Kevin Costner movie FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME.
For those fans who need some Shaggy to get down with in the clubs, HOTSHOT has such potential dance floor smashes as "Dance & Shout," which lifts the chorus from the classic Jackson 5 hit "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)." Another highlight is "Angel," based on Chip Taylor`s classic `60s song "Angel of the Morning," where Shaggy inventively incorporates a funky guitar sample from Steve Miller`s "The Joker." HOTSHOT also includes an updated version of the Shaggy classic "Luv Me, Luv Me."
