X-Tra Naked is a powerful snapshot of Shabba Ranks' reign as a dancehall icon. Bobby "Digital" Dixon provides a good amount of the production, serving up stripped-down, in-your-face attitude on tracks like Rude Bo. Capturing the early-'90s moment when hip-hop and ragga became willing bedfellows, MCs Queen Latifah and Chubb Rock contribute guest spots, with the former bigging up her "moneymaking Jamaican" on the feel-good, ’80s soul-sampling "What ’Cha Gonna Do?" X-Tra Naked Shabba Ranks. X-Tra Naked is a powerful snapshot of Shabba Ranks' reign as a dancehall icon.

Unfortunately, the songs do start to blend together as you work your way through the album. I don't think that is necessarily a bad thing if you're looking to turn up or get busy though I would not recommend this if you're yearning for a dynamic musical experience.

Shabba Ranks ~ Xtra Naked. By the time Shabba released this sophomore Epic LP, his comedic sex machine persona was honed to perfection. From the opener, "Ting-a-ling"-a great uptempo dancehall jam-through the other 11 tracks, Xtra Naked lives up to its title with nonstop sex and microphone boasting. Bedroom Bully" is fun, but, again, the duets with R&B artists, like "Slow and Sexy" with Johnny Gill, try too hard to cater to American tastes and come off as merely cheesy.

Shabba Ranks: X-Tra Naked Like any dance music, dancehall is for acolytes. I'm ready to believe his crossover is rooted in rhythmic authority, but I can't help believing that his heinous sexual politics ng-and-forgetting or declaring oral-genital contact an abomination, he must seem quite the noble savage to young pan-Africanists seeking new horizons in male supremacism.

Shabba Ranks (born Rexton Rawlston Fernando Gordon; January 17, 1966, Sturgetown, St. Ann, Jamaica) is a Jamaican dancehall musician.
