"This CD is Beenie Man at his best. The music has that old style reggae beat with that dance hall flavor. If you like Beenie Man, you "MUST" get this CD."
A lot better than The Doctor

"I just listened to this a few days ago...didn't even know of its existence...It's far better than Beenie's other release "The Doctor"...although on a few of the tunes it doesn't sound like Beenie...n e way, get this CD if you were/weren't disapointed with "The Doctor"...Almost all the tunes are fresh and not on any other release..."
Beenie's Ruff N Tuff Deserves more recognition.

"This CD is excellent. It deserves more attention that it's gotten. It seems to have been pushed aside when the Doctor was released. Excellent riddims. Mouth Murderer is my favorite track and I think it would be very succesful as a single."
He advocates the killing of gays

"In his music, Beenie Man advocates killing gays. More than
30 gays have been killed in Jamaica, where he comes from.
His music has lots of influence there. In some cases mobs
sang his anti-gay songs while they killed a man who might have been gay.
When asked to apologize and change his ways he wrote a song about how he
would not apologize. If someone advocated the killing
of Blacks or Jews, they would not be tolerated. It seems strange
that in the 21st century the world still tolerates someone
who advocates the killing of gays. I suspect that the world
would not tolerate this if white men were getting killed.
