Reception

BBC's Collective gave solid approval to the album, commenting, "Dancehall Places is filled with 'paaarty toons' which put you in a dancing mood even if they are a bit cheesy." They also noted the greater "depth and intelligence" of the slower songs.

The song "Show Me" is featured in the National Lampoon productions movie Van Wilder (2002), (although it is not featured on the official soundtrack). The track samples Sesiya Hamba by African group Ipi Ntombi.
