– The visuals are here, and oh what a hot sizzling video for the summer. Anyone who has been to a dance or party, must have grooved to ‘Ain’t Too Proud to Beg’, the classic 1966 dance number by The Temptations. Well, a new generation of fans have been gifted with the opportunity to rock to a dancehall version of that track by Hezron and Beenie Man.
Produced by Richie Stephens exclusively for Tad’s International Record, Hezron & Beenie Man’s rendition of Ain’t Too Proud to Beg’ is DJ’s musical delight. Hezron does justice to David Ruffin’s earnest plea for his lover to give him another chance. And the doctor, Beenie Man, showcases his groovy vibes, which is a signature feature of collaborations with this Jamaican musical connoisseur.
Beenie Man complement’s Hezron’s smoky vocals with a toast big on swag to the melody of Teddy Pendergrass’ 1978 hit song, ‘When Somebody Loves You Back’. The blend of soul, Rhythm And Blues and dancehall makes ‘Ain’t Too Proud to Beg’ a certain hit in diverse markets.
This release of the video for ‘Ain’t Too Proud to Beg’ comes on the heels of the announcement of Beenie Man being bestowed with Jamaica’s sixth-highest national honour, the Order of Distinction (Officer Class) come National Heroes Day (October 21, 2024)
Hezron is a stalwart of the Tad’s International Record camp. He has released several well-received songs for the label including ‘Natural Woman’, ‘Save The Children’ and ‘I Shall be Released’ (with Big Youth).
For ‘Ain’t Too Proud to Beg’, Hezron teams up with Grammy winner Beenie Man, a dancehall legend whose countless hits include ‘Slam’, ‘Nuff Gal’, ‘Oyster And Conch’, ‘Who Am I’ and ‘Dude’.
With such impressive credentials, their version of one of Motown’s greatest songs is hit-bound, just like the original
