Hotel Cabana is the debut studio album by British record producer Shahid "Naughty Boy" Khan, released from 23 August 2013 through Naughty Boy Recordings and Virgin EMI. Khan set up his Naughty Boy Productions record and production company. He would find his break by producing Chipmunk's 2009 top-ten single "Diamond Rings", featuring a then unknown Emeli Sandé. Naughty Boy released his own debut single as a signed artist in 2010. "Never Be Your Woman" samples White Town's 1997 number-one single "Your Woman" and featured British grime artist Wiley and Sandé on the chorus; it reached the top ten in the UK and is included as a bonus track on Hotel Cabana.
The collaboration marked the start of a partnership between Naughty Boy and Sandé which is seen throughout Hotel Cabana and Sandé's debut set, Our Version of Events (2012). Hotel Cabana is R&B, soul, garage, pop and hip hop music productions record, with influences from orchestral and Bollywood music. Naughty Boy describes it as an "audio-visual experience" and a concept album based on a luxury hotel where musicians come to perform. Hotel Cabana reunites Naughty Boy with Sandé on eight collaborations, as well as features from other British artists such George the Poet, Sam Smith, Bastille, Tinie Tempah, Ella Eyre, Gabrielle, Wretch 32, Mic Righteous, Maiday, Chasing Grace, Ed Sheeran, and American rapper Wiz Khalifa, who appears on the album's fourth single overall, "Think About It", with Eyre. Ava Stokes, Tanika, Thabo and RØMANS make additional appearances on the US version of the album which was released by Virgin Records on 6 May 2014.
Prior to release, Hotel Cabana was promoted with several video trailers which included the collaborating artists arriving at the fictional hotel. It was also preceded by the release of three singles, including includes the two top-ten Sandé collaborations: "Wonder" and "Lifted", as well as the UK Singles Chart-topper "La La La" (featuring Sam Smith). Upon release, the album received generally favourable reviews from music critics, who praised the production, but with some criticism towards the concept, execution and some collaborations. Hotel Cabana made its chart debuts at number two in the UK, number five in Scotland and twenty-five in Ireland.
Production and composition
Hotel Cabana is a pop, R&B, soul and hip hop music record, containing "orchestral flourishes" and "Bollywood inflections".[2][3] Naughty Boy called Hotel Cabana more than an album, it was an audio-visual concept. "I want it to be an album for our time; it has a concept to it, so it's more like a film in some respects." Speaking about putting together the album, he said "I view it like I'm not just a producer – I'm a director too."[4] During an interview with the Watford Observer, Naughty Boy said "It’s a very diverse, musically organic album. There’s a lot of dance-future music that’s going on now." Explaining the "hotel" concept, he said "the album is like a hotel, and just like guests coming to stay, musicians appear on the album. Each song does stand alone, but all together, the album tells a story, it’s one guy’s journey, a bit like the song "Hotel California", it’s a twisted journey. You can visit, but you can never leave, you can listen to the album, but you won’t be able to stop.[5]
Hotel Cabana was recorded at Cabana Studios, a recording block located at Ealing Studios in London, UK; Naughty Boy told Sound on Sound magazine that the studio was always called "Cabana" and that naming his debut album Hotel Cabana was in part inspired by the studio.[6] The entire album was produced using Logic Pro and Reason.[7] The album centres predominately around the themes of fame, "involving debates about the tenuous nature of virtue and fidelity."[8] Speaking on how the album was composed, Naughty Boy used piano and live instruments, adding that it was "just the basics. What they would have had in the 70s."[2] While making the album, Naughty Boy was influenced by M.I.A., Tracy Chapman, Joe Goddard, Woodkid and Major Lazer.[4] On 19 August, Naughty Boy appeared on MistaJam's BBC Radio 1Xtra show to talk about the album track-by-track. "Hotel Cabana where the sleepless kids live" was created following several days Naughty Boy and Sandé spent in the studio together.[9]
George the Poet helps to establish the album's hotel concept through, starting with a monologue at the beginning of the set.[10] This is followed by the album's opener, "Welcome to Cabana" with Emeli Sandé and Tinie Tempah which describes Hotel Cabana as a mysterious place "full of drama" and haunted by "sleepless kids".[10] Meanwhile, "Wonder" and "Lifted", both two of eight collaborations with Sandé, experiment with gospel music.[10][11] The latter collaboration contains elements of drum and bass and stadium music.[12] The Independent's Andy Gill also described the production on "Lifted" as a "[Naughty Boy] trademark Funky Drummer variant" with "quirkily looped strings and backing vocals".[8] It was the Sandé and Wretch 32 collaboration, "Pluto", that garnered some of the most positive comments, Gill said "Pluto" best exemplified Naughty Boy's signature sound, which was a "blend of vaunting synthesised strings and shuffling groove carries a two-way argument between Sandé and Wretch 32",[8] while Aizlewood called all of the Sandé collaborations "stellar".[13]
When conceiving the song "Hollywood", Naughty Boy originally considered asking Dame Shirley Bassey to sing the vocals, describing the situation as "epic", but in the end he thought it "would be too much". Upon hearing Gabrielle's song "Out of Reach" on the radio he said "her voice is so unique. It's not technically the best voice, but it stands on its own. It's incredible."[1] Digital Spy's Robert Copsey described the collaboration as "the spookiest of them all", centering on "how fame can be fleeting".[10] "No One's Here to Sleep", a collaboration with Bastille, combines indie music and dance-pop, with soulful vocals from Bastille's lead vocalist Dan Smith.[8] The lyrics center around the paranoia of fame.[10]
Release
Hotel Cabana was first released on 23 August 2013 in Germany,[11] Ireland[14] and Spain[15] by EMI and Universal Music. Its UK release came on 26 August 2013 through Naughty Boy's own production company Naughty Boy Recordings and Virgin EMI,[16] with the producer's official website selling 500 limited edition signed copies of the album.[17] In the following week, Hotel Cabana was released in Spain on 30 August[18] and in Italy on 3 September 2013.[19] It was released in Japan on 9 October through EMI Records Japan,[20] while About.com's Bill Lamb confirmed that Capitol Records would be distributing the album at a later date in the United States.[21]
With the absorption of EMI by Universal Music, and the subsequent reorganisation of record labels, Virgin Records and Capitol Records will now release Hotel Cabana in the United States. According to the iTunes store, it is due for release on 6 May 2014, and features three new songs: "Never Been the Same," featuring Thabo, "Pardon Me," featuring Tanika and Ava Stokes, and "Home," featuring Romans[22] with the deluxe edition containing the bonus tracks from the international standard edition.[23] "La La La" and "Pardon Me" are available as instant downloads upon pre-ordering the album.[22]

The album received generally favourable reviews from music critics. Digital Spy's Robert Copsey gave the album four out of five stars, commenting that "Hotel Cabana succeeds in a task previously thought impossible: giving personality and depth to a features album." In his review, Copsey praised the opening section of the album, but noted that some of the urban-pop was generic and "the concept starts to lose its footing around the halfway mark".[10] James Cabooter from the Daily Star also gave Hotel Cabana a positive review on the collaborations with Ed Sheeran ("Top Floor") and Sam Smith ("La La La").[3]
John Aizlewood from the London Evening Standard was confused about what Hotel Cabana was conceptualising but called Naughty Boy's collaborations with Sandé "stellar", praising "Pluto" (also featuring Wretch 32) and "Wonder". Aizlewood said "the result sounds like a compilation album, but a filler-free one where almost every song is capable of standing alone."[13] The Independent's Andy Gill awarded it the "Album of the Week", praising Sandé's performance on the album, described as "an impassioned lead".[8] AllMusic rated it 3.5 out of 5 stars, calling it "unapologetically ostentatious, skillfully constructed pop."[50] The Times rated it 3 out of 5 stars, saying it "proves far more interesting than you might imagine" but was critical of the album's reliance on Sandé and described Ed Sheeran as "her twin in tedium, bleating away".[56]
However, not all of the reception was positive, with The Observer's Kitty Empire describing the album as predictable and "Naughty? Hardly." During her review, Empire said "Hotel Cabana sounds as you would expect: homegrown, high-end urban pop that over-conceptualises the dangers of fame." She praised the Ella Eyre and Wiz Khalifa collaboration "Think About It" but said the remainder of the album was full of "disparate voices [that] give this album the disjointed feel of a showreel."[54] musicOMH noted the album had "a fair few missteps", specifically mentioning Ed Sheeran's contribution as "dull as dishwater – and even that maybe going to easy on it", concluding the album wasn't "coherent".[53]
Chart performance
On 28 August 2013, in the mid-week charts update, the Official Charts Company revealed that Hotel Cabana was a contender to top the UK Albums Chart. At the half-way mark, it was just 3,600 copies behind the mid-week leader Hail to the King by US rock band Avenged Sevenfold.[57] On 1 September 2013, Hotel Cabana made its Scottish Albums Chart debut at number five and its UK Albums Chart debut at number two.[58][59] On the Irish Albums Chart it debuted at number twenty-five.[60] In Switzerland, the album debuted at number thirty-four but rose to a new peak of number eight in its second week on the chart.[61] Similarly in Belgium, on the Flanders Album Chart it debuted and number eighty-five and 120 on the Wallonia Albums Chart; in its second week it rose to number seventy-four and number seventy on the Flanders and Wallonia album charts respectively.[62][63]
