Rating: - Dutty Rock ....taking dancehall to the next level
Sean was saving the best for last with this cd. I knew that there would be lots of tracks like his last cd..but wasent sure how good it would be after releasing such a sucessful single. Well im here to tell you there is no dissappointment here...sean paul brings the dutty rock..and more. With this one he brigns the funny/tight intros again while keeping every song locked in with that original dancehall sound. He mixed hip-hop into it this time around too which made for a good mix. Tight songs here are:Shout(Dancehall..indian beat..keeping it sounding fresh), Gimme the light(enough said here......one of the best tracks), Like Glue, Get Busy, Concrete, Im still in love with you, Can you do the work, Punky, Bubble, and Esa Loca with tony touch. Overall Sean paul came very strong on this second one showing growth by working with different people and sounds. He is definetly making a mark and bring dancehall to another level by appearing on so many new albums out nwo as well as making much sucess with "Gimme the light" on the charts and on Tv. This only makes you wonder where his next one will take us......but for now its time to get down to the dutty rock....and Get this!

Sean Paul, Jamician Born artist has positioned himself strongly on Billboards Charts.
His latest Album "DUTTY ROCK" ranking in the Top 10 in not one, but two catogories. Top R&B/Hip-Hop Album and Top Raggae Album. Sean Pauls "DUTTY ROCK" has forced the music industry and music lovers alike to open it's heart and soul to authentic Dancehall Reggae. Proving that Dancehall has a viable appeal to mainstream music listeners. His debut single "Gimme The Light" featuring Busta Rhymes is sure to be this years hottest sound in the clubs. The album is deeply imbedded with authentic Reggae riddim (rhythm). Sean Paul combines Dancehall Raggae and Latin flavor like no other artist. Sean Paul track "I'm still In Love with You Boy" featuring Sasha is a wonderful love Ballet. Sean Paul has many famous artist featured on his latest album. Such as Busta Rhymes, Sasha, Cecile, Farenheit. In addition the track "Esa Loca" features Tony Touch/R.O.B.B by Kim Heil UnRatedMagazine.com
Rating: - Extraordinary sophmore effort
I would definitely have to agree with the earlier reviewers that this album was worth the wait. The thing I like about Sean Paul is the energy and creativity he puts into every track. I had to admit I was a little worried about how much of his wicked, original style would be diluted with the mainstream influence. With Dutty Rock Sean doesn't dilute, but rather helps elevate dance hall to another level. Like Stage One, I can nod my head to this album from start to finish. "Gimme the Light" is obviously getting the mainstream play, but the best tracks on the album in my opinion are "Like Glue" (LOVE that riddim!!), the remake of "I'm Still in Love" (A successful reincarnation of a classic), "Can You Do the Work" (Nice collab with a very talented artist in Ce'Cile), and "Punkie" (I don't even speak Spanish but I love both versions). He rounds out the album with some other great tracks doing collaborations with great artists from the Hip Hop and Dance Hall world. The remix of "Gimme the Light" with Busta Rhymes is definitely a banger for the Hip Hop heads. I was slightly disappointed with a couple tracks, like "Essa Loca" and that "Bubble" track. I guess I was expecting more from collaborations with Tony Touch and the Neptunes. Nevertheless, this album is extraordinary for a sophmore effort, and a great primer for those who have been sleepin' on dance hall music. It's amazing but yet a long time coming for artists like Sean to break into mainstream, American music culture. Hopefully Sean won't have to sacrifice his original sound to keep doing so. Nuff Respect Sean!! DUTTY EHH!!!!
