Just Reality is the second solo studio album by Jamaican dancehall/reggae recording artist Shabba Ranks. Released in 1990 via VP Records, the album was produced by Bobby "Digital" Dixon.
While it did not receive as many positive reviews as its predecessor, the album included the massive hit "Wicked Inna Bed" and the highly influential track "Dem Bow",[2] which played a key role in the instrumental birth of reggaeton as a genre.
