Review - :
{$Sean Paul}'s {^Dutty Rock} is an infectious record, bursting with hooks and filled with energy; it is a surprise U.S. hit. {$Paul}'s mix of {\dancehall} and modern {\R&B} and {\hip-hop} is lightweight and easy to dance to. It slows down near the end as some filler creeps in, but at its best, {^Dutty Rock} is almost revolutionary. {$Paul} utilizes big-name producers like {$Sly & Robbie}, {$Steely & Clevie}, {$Jeremy Harding}, and the ubiquitous {$Neptunes}, whose sexy {&"Bubble"} is one of the highlights of the record. The best track, the stuttering, can't-get-it-out-of-your-head catchy {&"Get Busy,"} is produced by {$Steven "Lenky" Marsden}, and features his staggeringly popular diwali rhythm and a great vocal by {$Paul}. Other tracks, like the hit single {&"Gimme the Light,"} and the {&"Louie Louie"}-influenced {&"Like Glue,"} are almost as good. {$Paul} has a good ear for melody and his flat, distinctive voice is perfect for his sing-jay style (sing-jay being a blend of DJ and singing). {$Paul} also ropes in {$Busta Rhymes} for an amped-up remix of {&"Gimme the Light,"} and {$Rahzel} of {$the Roots} to provide rapping and silly noises on {&"Top of the Game."} This is such a good record that even the skits are pretty good. {&"Police Skit"} may even provide a few chuckles. {$Sean Paul}'s blend of {\dancehall} and {\hip-hop} brings out the best of each genre, and {^Dutty Rock} should be booming out of your Jeep if you are a fan of either. [{^Dutty Rock} was reissued in September of 2003 with the addition of {&"Baby Boy,"} an excellent track from {$Beyoncé}'s {^Dangerously in Love} record that features {$Sean Paul}, and the subtraction of the humorous but inessential skits, and one of the original album's weakest tracks, {&"It's On."} This reshuffling makes an already strong album even stronger. The disc was also released in a "clean" format.]~ Tim Sendra, All Music Guide
