Jamaican-American singer Shaggy has released seventeen studio albums, seven compilation albums, eighty-eight singles, and forty-seven music videos. He is best known for his hit singles "Oh Carolina", "Boombastic", "It Wasn't Me", and "Angel". In 2000, Shaggy released the album Hot Shot, which was certified 6× Platinum in the United States. The album featured the singles "It Wasn't Me" and "Angel", the latter of which was built around two song samples – Merrilee Rush's 1968 hit "Angel of the Morning" (which was remade in 1981 by Juice Newton), and The Steve Miller Band's 1973 hit "The Joker". In 2001 Shaggy performed with Rayvon and Rikrok at Michael Jackson's 30th anniversary the songs "Angel" and "It Wasn't Me" from Hot Shot. The album hit number one on the US Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart.[1] As of 2007, Shaggy has sold over 20 million albums worldwide.[2]
