Shaggy’s performance
Shaggy gave a great performance! He entered performing Sugarcane, Strength of a Woman and Angel with Rayvon, after which he brought Tarrus Riley on stage for a live rendition of Just Another Girl (off Shaggy’s Grammy nominated album Summer in Kingston & the Kingston 13 Riddim, to be released on January 31)!

Tarrus Riley went on performing She’s Royal and Shaggy performed Bad Man Don’t Cry, What’s Love and his upcoming single Dame (to be released on the Summer in Kingston Lava Edition, in stores February 7) accompanied by Aisha Davis.

When the first sounds of Shaggy’s worldwide number one hit It Wasn’t Me were resonating through Trelawny, Shaggy brought another surprise guest on stage… It was Ne-Yo, who performed It Wasn’t Me together with Shaggy! Ne-Yo also performed Miss Independent and Shaggy and Tony Gold concluded the festival’s first night with Hey Sexy Lady. Attendees and live stream viewers say the concert was amazing!

Sneak peek: Shaggy feat. Tarrus Riley – Just Another Girl
Check Shaggy’s official Facebook for a link to a sneak peek of one of the tracks on the awesome upcoming album Summer in Kingston and an interview about the album title, the Sugarcane video and more! Wow!

Shaggy just tweeted: “Summer in Kingston sneak peek listen to “Just Another Girl” ft. Tarrus Riley on Boomshots!”

Just Another Girl is the extra-heavy lead cut off Shaggy’s Summer In Kingston, which is set to be released on July 19 on iTunes and other digital outlets only! Just Another Girl features the great Tarrus Riley. Singy Singy reprises a classic Ken Boothe hook—with its haunting contradiction of trying to get over a girl while you’re still singing about her—and the DJ’s skills are on point as usual. You can front on Shaggy if you like, but reggae’s biggest living hit-maker just keeps knockin’ them out the park. Run that!

Shaggy, Chino, Agent Sasco, Di Genius, Stone Love, Renaissance, the Tantrum Band and Ity and Fancy Cat will perform at the event, that starts at 7 PM.

Boomshots Shaggy interview
The Boomshots article features an interview with Shaggy as well! Shaggy talks about how he wants the Sugarcane video to showcase the “splendidness” of Jamaica. Read the interview and listen to Just Another Girl on Boomshots!
