Beenie Man is feeling pretty good about himself right now. "Dude," the lead single from his current "Back to Basics" album, has become one of his biggest hits—peaking at No. 16 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. So it's only fitting that the veteran reggae dancehall artist would follow that with the aptly titled "King of the Dancehall." While many of his contemporaries might disagree with the title, Beenie proves to be more than a worthy contender for the crown. Backed by a hypnotic track, courtesy of producer Tony "CD" Kelly, Beenie spins a verse about his skills, sexual and otherwise. Despite the genre's recent successes, most R&B programmers remain slow in picking up on dancehall singles. That said, Beenie's proven track record and an impressive videoclip now in rotation at BET should speed up the process.—RH

Those Billboard articles always puzzle me. What's so "impressive" about the video? lol...nothing. It's in black and white and he's just sitting in a throne with girls dancing around him. BET has been playing it quite a bit though, I saw it alot before I left for Florida last week, and now I'm back.
Either way, this song is tight! It's real good, I like it.
Oddly enough, I've had "Dude" in my head today.

I predict a top 10 hit. Don't ask me why. It has something to it, kinda like "Get Busy"
