Watch Shaggy, Sting Team Up for ‘Til a Mawnin’ on ‘Fallon’

The pair released a Grammy-winning joint album, 44/876, in 2018

Shaggy and Sting appeared on The Tonight Show to perform their latest collaborative single, “Til a Mawnin.” The pair were joined by a live band and two back-up singers for the upbeat performance, which paid homage to reggae music.

The musicians dropped “Til a Mawnin” last month. The track was written by Shaggy, Sting, and Henry “Junjo” Lawes, and was produced by Shaggy and Shane Hoosong. It re-imagines Lawes’ 1981 “I’m Not Getting Crazy” riddim, which has been the foundation for several classic reggae tunes.

Shaggy and Sting previously teamed up for a collaborative album, 44/876, in 2018. The album won Best Reggae Album at the 61st Grammy Awards. At the time Sting explained of the unexpected pairing, “I think surprise is always the most important element in all music. You don’t want to just go with people’s expectations. You always want to surprise them. I listen to music expecting a surprise within eight measures.”
