The release of the joint album Sting (Sting) and Shaggy (Shaggy) under the intriguing title “44 / 876” was held on 20 on April 2018.
It all started when Sting decided to record the song "Don't Make Me Wait" with reggae artist Shaggy. The musicians enjoyed working together so much that in just a few weeks they ended up with a whole album of 16 tracks.
The album title “44/876” encrypts the telephone codes of Great Britain and Jamaica. In an interview with online publication dailymail.co.uk, Sting said: “We had an instant understanding, a feeling of kindred spirits. Our voices, however, are completely different, and we were not sure of success. However, the result pleasantly surprised everyone.”
The album features Jamaican bassist Robert Shakespeare of Sly and Robbie, Jamaican dance music star Donia, DJ Agent Sasco and guitarist Dominic Miller from Sting's backing band. Produced by Martin Kirtzenbaum, Robert Orton and Tony Lake. The album was released by the music labels Interscope Records and A&M.
In our opinion, the track “Waiting For The Break Of Day” is the most interesting on the album. It was he who was presented on the StingVEVO channel on April 13, 2018. Let's listen.
A much less soulful song in our opinion called “Don’t Make Me Wait” was already presented on the same channel in February 2018 in the form of a full-fledged video:
