Snow unfurls nimble-tongued stutters and a heretofore unrevealed gift for intimacy-a mike cuddling singing style with subtlety and chops to match any of today's soul brothers." ĭmitri Ehlrich of Entertainment Weekly gave Justuss a "B" grade and wrote, "Perhaps the most surprising thing about this album of pop- and rap-tinged dancehall is how credible it is. Writing for Vibe magazine, She added, "Justuss covers a wider musical range-fragments of reggae and funk treasures, contemporary hip-hop and soul-opening up dancehalls borders without sacrificing the fundamental hardcore vibe. DJ stardom only spans only a brief season or two and Snow's plush, Afro-Erotic crooning-a sure route to career longevity-surpasses even his mic rocking."

Elena Oumano of Billboard declared, "His nimble tongued rude bwoy DJ persona remains as persuasive as ever in appealing dance tracks like opener "Steadly Woa" and "Mash Up Da Nation." But for his third album, Snow tips the album toward the sweetly intense he unveiled in only a track or two on his debut set.

Critical reception Professional ratings Review scoresĭespite the fact that Justuss is Snow's lowest selling album, it received mostly positive reviews. However, the music videos for "If This World Were Mine" regularly appeared on The Box and " Boom Boom Boogie" played "five to six spins a day" on MTV Japan. " Boom Boom Boogie" achieved Gold status in Japan and "If This World Were Mine" was released as a twelve-inch single in the United States and Canada. For the United States and Canada, Elektra planned to market "If This World Were Mine" to various clubs, DJs, and "college and mix shows." Elektra also planned to "iron out" Snow's visa issues but apparently, were unable to do as he did not tour the United States or Japan to promote the album. Justuss has powerful underlying meanings." The marketing strategy for Justuss consisted of releasing limited edition LPs to underground markets and worldwide stations. This album has really strong songs and a good thematic balance. We think this album is different because Snow has created a musical journey from his life-long experience. So, we have to reconnect Snow with his fans from the Informer days and reestablish his credibility. Tony Kelly and Laurie brought out more of my creativity and different styles." Marketing Īccording to Elektra Marketing Director Michelle Murray, Murder Love "did well worldwide. Snow told Billboard magazine in 1996, "The second ( Murder Love) was pressure. For Justuss, Snow worked with producer Marcus Kane in Canada and with Tony Kelly and Laurie Bogin for three-and-a-half-months in Jamaica.
