Sean Paul, actual King of Dancehall (poor homophobe!), is a Jamaican recording artist. He has a good dozen or so bonafide classics before he ever got paid to spruce up songs called "Cheap Thrills" or "Hair." Who knew?
Here's four Caribbean party standards from his debut, Stage One:
Four more from his imperial crossover era, lifted from the landmark Dutty Rock LP:
And while they're not seeing the previous album's, three of these, from '05's The Trinity, charted even higher!
I don't really know him, I just see his name a lot when artists try to remix a song and tag it 69 cents. I don't mean it as shade though, it's amazing if you're able to give an artist a push towards maybe a #1 on Hot100.

The singles from his first two albums are all iconic. One of the best runs of hits in pop history.
