Recorded at HC&F Recording Studio and INS Studios, New York. Two years before the Gulf War I vet blew up on the pop charts with his career-defining single, "Boombastic," the Jamaican-born and Brooklyn-based Dancehall crooner known as Shaggy premiered with 1993's PURE PLEASURE. Truer to the Dancehall tradition than his later, more mainstream-oriented work, PURE PLEASURE sees Shaggy developing his self-dubbed "dog-a-muffin" style, laying rugged ragga chants over Caribbean riddims. The album shined a new light on the New York reggae scene and spawned three hit singles--Shaggy's infectious cover of the ska classic "Oh Carolina" (originally recorded by the Folkes Brothers), "Soon Be Done," and "Nice & Lovely."
