A fusion of reggae and hip hop, depicting the cheerful energy of the 90s streets.
An early work that combines Shaggy's cheerful dancehall with Rayvon's flow. A lively song filled with the essence that would lead to his later big hits.
"Big Up" is a single released in 1993, just before Shaggy made his big break, and is an ambitious work that fuses his signature dancehall reggae with American hip-hop flavor. His combination with Rayvon was a stepping stone to the later big hit "Angel," and this work blends more street-oriented powerful rap with the cheerfulness of reggae. It is a masterpiece that strongly conveys the crossover feeling of the early 90s.
