    A partnership that reads ridiculous on paper...sadly just sounds entirely pedestrian and pointless in reality. Hilariously, I believe Shaggy comes out of this sounding better than Sting. Owned.

    2 guys having fun and doing what they love. Great musicians and a great back up band. Reggae is fun and this is a fun and uplifting album. Listen without prejudice and you'll really enjoy it!

    A fresh and surprising collaboration with topical songs relevant to our times. Great musicianship, clever lyrics, and nice beats to dance to. More than four months atop Billboard's Reggae Albums chart is an achievement that speaks for itself.

    44/876 is like a hilarious fever dream somehow brought to life. Not entirely awful.

    4/876 is as professional, good-natured, and helplessly uncool as its billing promises.

    Sting’s still a fearless, fascinating lyricist, and Shaggy’s attractive persona remains one wink short of a leer. 44/876 may be no more exciting than a well-made sofa, but only psychopaths don’t like sofas.
