Too bad is the latest diffinitive album of Buju Banton, carrying on the tradition of creating prodigious dancehall/reggae music. Songs such as "Your Night Tonight", "Too Bad", "Go Slow", "Driver A", " Don and Dupes" make this album the perfect dancehall album for me. Also the love ballad "Girl U Know" generates a strong feeling of ecstacy in your body, that you just want to get up and dance. ... ...is the only song on the whole album which isn't consitant with the quality of the album as a whole.

Too bad is the latest diffinitive album of Buju Banton, carrying on the tradition of creating prodigious dancehall/reggae music. Songs such as "Your Night Tonight", "Too Bad", "Go Slow", "Driver A", " Don and Dupes" make this album the perfect dancehall album for me. Also the love ballad "Girl U Know" generates a strong feeling of ecstacy in your body, that you just want to get up and dance. Personally i would have to say that "Me & Ounu" is the only song on the whole album which isn't consitant with the quality of the album as a whole. Even if you are not a huge fan of Reggae or Dancehall this album will still satisfy your every need musically. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Album Notes
Personnel: Buju Banton (vocals); Pinchers (vocals). After expanding his repertoire over the years, dabbling in dub, ska, and even rock collaborations, Buju Banton returns to his roots with a harder, more traditional dancehall sound on his 2006 release, TOO BAD. Buju gets beats from Steely & Cleevie and legendary reggae producers Sly & Robbie, as well as a cameo from Pinchers on "Don & Dupes." Fans of his 1995 release 'TIL SHILOH will be pleased by TOO BAD, which could very well be his best since that classic album.
Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (p.126) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The beats hammer along, often relying on pleasingly weird and surprisingly effective low-pitched sounds in the organ family."
