World-renowned reggae superstar Shaggy has a major reason to celebrate. He scored a 2023 Grammy nomination for “Best Reggae Album.”

This was for “Com Fly Wid Mi,” which was produced by Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Sting.

“Still buzzing from the news that COM FLY WID MI is #GRAMMYs nominated for Best Reggae Album! Congratulations again to my fellow nominees and thank you @RecordingAcademy for this honor! I’m thrilled to be included as part of Music’s Biggest Night on @CBStv and can’t wait to celebrate alongside you Feb 5th,” Shaggy posted on Instagram.

Ironically enough, back in June of 2022, this publication hailed “Com Fly Wid Mi” as “Grammy-worthy.”

Sting and Shaggy previously won this Grammy category in 2019 for their collaborative album “44/876.”

“Com Fly Wid Mi” is available on digital service providers by clicking here.
