It went on to impact other stars of the genre like Shaggy and Sean 'YoungPow' Diedrick. The tag team effort of call and response verses with melodic choruses introduced a new format of toasting from Jamaica, influencing pan-Caribbean culture and crossing over globally. The song became a staple for weddings, BBQs, and clubs and has been called one of the best and most important dancehall tracks of all time. The music to the song is based on the Maytals' 1966 song "Bam Bam", while the lyrics discuss abortion (as revealed in the third verse). The song was certified gold in the UK in 2022. It was first released as a single in 1992 and again in late 1993, reaching number 27 on the UK Singles Chart in early 1994, and number 57 on the US Billboard Hot 100, spending 17 weeks there.
