Three Tune Tuesday - Shaggy - Birthday boy #17 [En-Pt]
Welcome to my #TTT #ThreeTuneTuesday entry!
...and now a "new" song that I didn't knew about!
Orville Richard Burrell was born on 22 October 1968, and very few people know him by his birth name.... If I tell you that he's a Jamaican-American reggae singer, who had big hits like ‘It wasn't me’ and ‘Boombastic’, surely few of you haven't heard them, and you're probably not associating them with the big name in reggae music Shaggy!
He stood out with his awards for best reggae album with Bombastic in 1996 and 44/876 with his collaboration with Sting in 2019. He also won the Brit Award for International Male Solo Artist of the Year in 2002.
The singer was born in Kingston (Jamaica's capital and largest city) and moved to New York City with his mother when he was 18.
After completing his military service in the Marine Corps, he also took part in the Persian Gulf War and was discharged in 1992.
Having released 15 solo albums and one in collaboration with Sting, it's not easy for someone never to have heard one of his great songs.
Today I'll leave you with just 3 of the songs I like best by the artist.
I hope this post has revived some good memories of someone who is still going strong today!
Cheers🍀
Orville Richard Burrell nasceu no dia 22 de Outubro de 1968, e muito poucos o conhecem pelo seu nome de nascença.... Se eu vos disser que é um cantor de reggae jamaicano-americano, que teve grandes êxitos como "It wasn't me" e "Boombastic", certamente que poucos de vós ainda não os deve ter ouvido, e não os deve estar a associar ao grande nome da música reggae Shaggy!
Destacou-se com os seus prémios de melhor álbum de reggae com Bombastic em 1996 e 44/876 com a colaboração com Sting em 2019. Conquistou também o Prémio Brit Award para Artista Masculino Solo Internacional do ano em 2002.
O cantor nasceu em Kingston (capital e maior cidade da Jamaica), tendo aos 18 anos mudado para New York City com sua mãe.
Depois de ter cumprido o serviço militar, integrado no Marine Corps, participou também na Guerra do Golfo Pérsico, tendo sido dispensado em 1992.
Tendo lançado 15 álbuns em nome individual e um em colaboração com Sting, não é fácil alguém nunca ter ouvido uma das suas grandes músicas.
Hoje deixo-vos aqui apenas 3 das músicas que eu mais gosto do artista.
Espero que esta publicação tenha conseguido reavivar memórias boas de alguém que ainda nos dias de hoje se mantém no activo!
Bem Hajam🍀

@xrayman! @heroldius Totally agrees with your content! so I just sent 1 IDD to your account on behalf of @heroldius.
Good times, shaking up with Shaggy. Had the pleasure of seeing him live years ago, both first two numbers played in concert, not sure about the third number it sounds familiar.

I never saw them live! I believe that it must be a very cheer-up environment and with a lot of good vibes! Miss these type of concerts!
Absolute blast on a chilly night for Durban, if I remember correctly Shaggy backed Toto band or other way around, not a great turn out, those there sure made it count. One of the best concerts back in the 1990s
