Now you can watch Shaggy and more race! Before that, Stefan Raab also interviewed a lot of people who were taking part in the qualifications for the Stock Car Challenge, among whom Shaggy. The interview video is called “Die Boxengassen” and you can also access it from that same page.
But that’s not all! Chilly-The-Hit made the press conference video available for watching, which is very cool. I embedded it below! The video points directly to the part from where Shaggy is shown and interviewed several times!

A word of advice from the lyrics…
[…]Now when a woman start get too protective
You might have to try figure out her objective
You better make sure your argument is infective
Real out Columbus she nah stop play detective[…]!

First up, is an interview by unikosmos.de, a German student magazine, in which Shaggy claims to be a lesbian and tells all about reggae, ganja (Hanf), his music and his journey in the music industry, collaborating with artists like Janet Jackson versus collaborations with artists like Akon, religion, women, Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel and women again (I don’t think the last part of the article is entirely correct but I’m not sure). It also has three cool pictures of Mr. Boombastic! The interview.

Big Up Magazine has an audio interview with Shaggy, where he also sings parts of songs he wrote for Maxi Priest (I Believe in Love) and Brian and Tony Gold (Irresistible) as well as some of his own tunes (Yuh a Move Hype, Wild 2Nite and Bonafide)!
