Review - :
The Caribbean trio the {$Baha Men} get into the mainstream on their fifth release {^Who Let the Dogs Out}, a brash and funky twist of east coast hip-hop and traditional reggae loops. The initial impression of the album thrives on the success of the album's self-titled single. It's amusing with it's abrasive whoomping throughout the song's chorus, and {$the Baha Men}'s quirky beatboxing is head-bopping and energetic. However, throughout the rest of the album, the overall party/celebratory tone takes a toll. It's fun and freewheeling, but it needs variety. The spunk exuded in the title track only delivers so much, so the album falls short just a bit. But for a decent hip-hop album, it's keeping up with current styles and norms. [The Japanese release sustitutes a ten-minute, one-track medley of {&"Shake It Mamma,"} {&"Reach Out,"} {&"You Can Get It,"} and the "Barking Mad Mix" of {&"Who Let the Dogs Out"} for the individual tracks themselves.] ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
