''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, 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 mixed reviews from music critics who praised parts of the production but critical of the concept, execution and some of the 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 and hip hop music record, containing "orchestral flourishes" and "Bollywood inflections".〔〔 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."〔 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.
''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.〔 The entire album was produced using Logic Pro and Reason. The album centres predominately around the themes of fame, "involving debates about the tenuous nature of virtue and fidelity."〔 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." While making the album, Naughty Boy was influenced by M.I.A., Tracy Chapman, Joe Goddard, Woodkid and Major Lazer.〔 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.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BBC Radio 1Xtra – MistaJam, Iggy Azalea & Naughty Boy Exclusives! )
George the Poet helps to establish the album's hotel concept through, starting with a monologue at the beginning of the set.〔 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".〔 Meanwhile, "Wonder" and "Lifted", both two of eight collaborations with Sandé, experiment with gospel music.〔〔 The latter collaboration contains elements of drum and bass and stadium music. ''The Independent''s Andy Gill also described the production on "Lifted" as a "(Boy ) trademark Funky Drummer variant" with "quirkily looped strings and backing vocals".〔 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",〔 while Aizlewood called all of the Sandé collaborations "stellar".〔
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." Digital Spy's Robert Copsey described the collaboration as "the spookiest of them all", centering on "how fame can be fleeting".〔 "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.〔 The lyrics center around the paranoia of fame.〔
