Ying Yang Twins - Dangerous feat. Wyclef Jean

We are not treated to any particularly dirty lyrics (even on the 'dirty' version), no sexual positions, no explicit fantasies, just boring old sexism

Single Review by Luc Benyon | 12 Dec 2006
Single title: Dangerous feat. Wyclef Jean
Artist: Ying Yang Twins
Label: Outpost
The Ying Yang Twins latest outing features hip-hop guru Wyclef Jean both producing and providing vocal depth. The single is a voyeuristic ode to a money-grabbing stripper who is, as we are repeatedly told, 'dangerous'. The track opens with a lovely heavy guitar riff which soon makes way to a sparse but infectious tune. This metal/rap combination has potential but unfortunately we only hear it a few times. Also disappointing is that we are not treated to any particularly dirty lyrics (even on the 'dirty' version), no sexual positions, no explicit fantasies, just boring old sexism. Wyclef's voice is as unique and arresting as ever and the Twins clearly benefit from his know-how. The Twins are humorous in their lyrics and know how to drop a great beat, with Wyclef onboard it's hard not to see it being a hit. [Luc Benyon]
