1, Shaggy (born October 22… Read Full Bio ↴Shaggy is the name of, at least, two artists.
1, Shaggy (born October 22, 1969, in Kingston, Jamaica as Orville Richard Burrell), is a Jamaican reggae artist who takes his nickname from his shaggy hair. He is especially notable for his distinctive sub-baritone voice.
His family immigrated to the United States and they settled in the neighborhood of Flatbush, Brooklyn, located in New York City, New York, USA.
In 1988, he joined the United States Marine Corps and served during Operation Desert Storm during the Persian Gulf War.
On his return from Iraq, he decided to pursue his music career and his first hit in 1993: "Oh Carolina", was a dancehall re-make of a ska hit by the Folkes Brothers. The same year, Shaggy appeared on Kenny Dope's hip hop album "The Unreleased Project". He worked together with producers such as Sting Intl., Don One (who cut his first track), Lloyd 'Spiderman' Campbell and Robert Livingston. He had further big hits, including "Boombastic" in 1995.
He then had a major comeback in 2001, featuring worldwide number-one hit singles "It Wasn't Me" and "Angel," the latter of which was built around Merrilee Rush's 1968 hit "Angel of the Morning" (which was remade in 1981 by Juice Newton). The album Hot Shot, from which those cuts came, would hit number one on the Billboard 200.
However, his 2002 release Lucky Day, and the 2005 album Clothes Drop failed to match Hot Shot's success.
Shaggy performed the theme for Showtime (film), a 2002 movie.
2, Shaggy, a swedish rock/blues rock band from the 1970's. Released one album, "Lessons for beginners"
I'm Not Rich
Shaggy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
You know I live like a millionaire
You know I live like I ain't got to care
In the world, but I do
I care about me and you
I care about me and you
I care about right and wrong
Shuggie
Straight lovin' every time
Love fah wake up next to you, woman your so devine
Yah body round like a Bentley
And when me give you love yah get it plenty
And it don't matter more time they can't find us
I'm in total bliss plus or minus
With you I feel rich; I can buy anything
I'm doing right by you 'cause I got everything (everything)
I'm not rich but I live like a millionaire
You know I live like a millionaire
You know I live like I ain't got a care
In the world, but I do
I care about me and you
I care about me and you
I care about right and wrong
So I've got to be strong
This world needs to change for the better
Hate fa see poor people uh suffer
Come make we open up our eyes
So we don't meet our own demise
But love or fight we are killing one another
Whatever happened to our brother's keeper
It's time we start by loving one another
Don't sell your soul for gold nor paper
I'm not rich but I live like a millionaire
You know I live like a millionaire
You know I live like I ain't got acare
In the world but I do
I care about me and you
I care about me and you
I care about right and wrong
So I've got to be strong
I'm not rich but I live like a millionaire
You know I live like a millionaire
You know I live like I ain't got a care
In the world but I do
I care about me and you
I care about me and you
I care about right and wrong
I'm not rich but I live like a millionaire
You know I live like a millionaire
You know I live like I ain't got a care
In the world but I do
I care about me and you
I care about me and you
I care about right and wrong
So I've got to be strong
