The Magnificent is the fourteenth studio album by Beenie Man.
Moses Anthony Davis, professionally known as Beenie Man, is a Jamaican dancehall deejay.
Rodney Basil Price, known as Bounty Killer, is a Jamaican reggae and dancehall deejay. AllMusic describes him as "one of the most aggressive dancehall stars of the '90s, a street-tough rude boy with an unrepentant flair for gun talk". He is considered one of the best dancehall lyricists of all time.
Dancehall is a genre of Jamaican popular music that originated in the late 1970s. Initially, dancehall was a more sparse version of reggae than the roots style, which had dominated much of the 1970s. In the mid-1980s, digital instrumentation became more prevalent, changing the sound considerably, with digital dancehall becoming increasingly characterized by faster rhythms. Key elements of dancehall music include its extensive use of Jamaican Patois rather than Jamaican standard English and a focus on the track instrumentals.
"Feel It Boy" is a song by Jamaican dancehall musician Beenie Man featuring American singer Janet Jackson from Beenie Man's 15th studio album, Tropical Storm (2002). The song was written by Beenie Man, Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo, and Clancy Eccles and was produced by the Neptunes. Virgin Records released the song on 15 July 2002 as the lead single from the album. "Feel It Boy" peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart and became a top-40 hit in eight other countries, including the United States, where it peaked at number 28.
"Who Am I (Sim Simma)", or simply "Who Am I", is a reggae single released by dancehall artist Beenie Man in 1998. It is the second track on his album Many Moods of Moses released in 1997.
Gerald Levy, better known as Bogle and also as Bogle Dancer, Mr Bogle, Father Bogle and Mr Wacky, was a Jamaican dancehall dancer and choreographer. Beenie Man called Bogle "the greatest dancer of all time" and he is recognised as "part of the foundation and as an icon inside of dancehall culture." Bogle created more dancehall moves than any other figure; he is best known for creating the Bogle dance which is named after him. His stage name, Bogle, is a reference to Paul Bogle a National Hero of Jamaica.
"King of the Dancehall" is the second single by Beenie Man from his studio album Back to Basics. It was written by Tony Kelly, Maurice Gregory, and Beenie Man himself. It was produced by Tony "CD" Kelly.
The Doctor is the tenth studio album by Jamaican deejay Beenie Man, released in 1999 by VP Records. The album features some of Beenie Man's most well known songs, such as "Bookshelf", "Tell Me (Remix)", and "Battery Dolly" among others. While not as commercially successful as his experimental previous album Many Moods of Moses, the album received high praises from fans and critics for a return to a more traditional dancehall sound. It is his eleventh studio album release.
"Dude" is the first single released from Jamaican musician Beenie Man's 16th studio album, Back to Basics (2004). It features Ms. Thing and was produced and written by Dave Kelly. The song is enhanced by the use of a vocoder and is on the Fiesta riddim.
Krystle Kantrece Johnson, better known by her stage name Ak'Sent, is an American rapper. She is from Los Angeles, California.
Girls Dem Sugar is a reggae fusion song by Jamaican deejay Beenie Man and features singer-songwriter Mýa. The track was produced by The Neptunes for Davis' 2000 studio album Art and Life and inspired and conceptualized from his 1997 Jamaican hit single "Who Am I ". "Girls Dem Sugar" was written by Beenie Man, Chad Hugo, and Pharrell Williams.
"Bossman" is a song by Beenie Man released in 2003 as the second single from his sixteenth studio album Tropical Storm. The song was written by Sean Paul, Beenie Man and The Neptunes, and features fellow dancehall artists Sean Paul and Lady Saw. It failed to chart on any of the Billboard charts, but it did manage to peak at #78 on the UK Singles Chart.
