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.
