With Intoxication, Shaggy has once again found that perfect balance of slick and streetwise, and added career-defining single number three as the cherry on top.
-
The slick Shaggy sex formula is intact, plus he steps off the well-worn with booming first single 'Church Heathen,' already scorching JA parties with its keen indictment of religious hypocrisy, and 'All About Love,' featuring his raw, ragged, utterly compelling singing voice. 'Body a Shake' comes harder than before.
-
Shaggy uses Intoxication to once again show that while he and his crew can crank out solid pop, they can match it with cuts that genuinely rock the dancehall.
-
From 'Intoxication' (a tale of sexual regret) to 'Church Heathen' (about hypocrisy in the church), the lyrics are more stimulating than your typical dancehall fare, and the beats are elegant and catchy.
-
Entertainment WeeklyHis best tune is an amigo-free one--the spare, glitchy title track. Gotta give the old dog credit for new tricks. [30 Nov 2007, p.133]
-
High points are overshadowed by the abundance of filler on Intoxication.
-
His intentions sound pure, but Shaggy's musical moonshine will leave all but the biggest fans with a heavy hangover.
