Sean Paul is a popular rapper that has gained a lot of attention throughout the years but seems to dip on the popular scale now and again for reasons that are known more to the fans than anyone. His style of music is addictive really since he tends to be hard-hitting in his lyrics and yet can soften it up just enough to make each song seductive in a way that invites a wider array of people to take notice. Born into a family of swimmers he was actually big into water polo until about the age of 21 when he gave the sport up to focus on his music career. From that point on it was a matter of getting to know the right people and hanging with the crowd that would be able to elevate his career into something that would get him out to the masses. He’s collaborated with some of the biggest names in hip hop to this date and seems to be one of those individuals that people don’t talk about all the time but thoroughly enjoy when his songs come on.
Here are a few of his best songs.
5. Break It Off
Sean Paul’s videos typically have a lot of movement in them and a whole lot of sex appeal since this is just the style he seems to favor. Plus, when he pairs with someone like Rihanna the music takes on a very enticing quality that plays well with the sex appeal and makes people pay attention. One thing about Sean Paul is that a lot of his lyrics are so quick that if you don’t catch them all you might need subtitles just to keep up. But if you’re paying close attention then they become even more entertaining. All the same, if you don’t understand the lyrics right away, the feel and punch of the song usually helps to keep one’s interest.
4. Give It Up to Me
It’s amazing how much an artist can change the feel of their music just by changing the pitch, tone, and the cadence of their singing. Some artists fall into the trap that sees a lot of songs become almost identical when it comes to beat and cadence, but Sean Paul manages to make everything sound as though it’s a song all on its own. There are a few songs that manage to sound a bit similar to one another, but it’s not such a pervasive thing that forces a person to give up on the artist simply because he can’t seem to find a way to employ a bit of variety. Sean Paul keeps it fresh most times and different enough that it’s always fun to hear.
3. We Be Burnin’
Sean isn’t immune to people being insanely critical of his lyrics since some of them do seem to invite a bit of introspection that might bring up something that doesn’t seem like what people want to hear. But in the grand scheme of the song a lot of the words seem as though they can be forgiven unless they’re so out of line that one can’t help but be offended. In reality though he’s a guy that raps about having a good time and doesn’t really get all that offensive if at all. A lot of times Sean doesn’t really waste the energy on being negative or even dipping into anything that might be deemed too controversial.
2. Get Busy
One thing you can be certain of is that Sean Paul’s songs are favorites in the club since his music is the kind that you can move to and in some cases might feel the absolute need to. The kind of music that simply grips you and doesn’t let go is the type that he spins and it’s easy to see just how people would want to hit the dance floor when he comes on. That kind of music is infectious, it grips a body and makes it sway at the very least while making others get down and really groove when they start to feel the call. This is the kind of music that you hear at a party and then proceed to either make a fool of yourself with or just have a good time with friends and don’t care.
1. Temperature
Something about Sean Paul’s music is just powerful and it’s not just the beats. The message he sends isn’t any stronger than a lot of musicians and yet the punch it delivers is something unique in that even if a person doesn’t like it they might still find it to be highly addictive when it comes on. Maybe it’s just something to do with the human psyche when heavy bass notes come in and a hard rhythm is laid down, we react even if we don’t feel like it.
Whatever it is has helped him out a great deal throughout the years.Rihanna
