1. SOUNDBITE (English) Sting and Shaggy, recording artists
Shaggy: “You know, but but you know, he has always had it. There’s, there’s such a huge cultural background with him and with the Jamaican culture and the reggae culture, you know, obviously with the undertones of The Police, you know, those reggae undertones from back then where he lived in what was it Notting Hill?”
Sting: “Notting Hill Gate.”
Shaggy: “Yeah, a lot of a lot of West Indian community, strong calypso and stuff like that.”
Sting: “Ska, blue beat, rocksteady, reggae.”
Shaggy: “Yeah. So it’s. It’s not as far fetched. On paper it looks weird, Shaggy and Sting. But you and you, you come and catch a show or see us together, it actually works. We’re still surprised.” (laughs)
