I'm going to try and not dismiss Sean Paul on this one and listen to the song, but there hasn't been a single thing he's done that I like.
Actually, while typing this I'm listening, and it's also not really my thing. I'm pretty sure the only link Sean Paul has with Jamaca is that the yarddie he used to buy groccories from's gran once visited jamaca on a cruise of the carab.

Nah, he's well popular back a yard, fe real
just releases commercial stuff here. Bit like Shaggy, innit tho.

Yeh', I ain't a fan of Shaggy eaither.
I think it's the whole jamacan thing.

I'll use someone else as an example of something I really hate, as I know this one for fact. There is a girl on The Food Network, I forgot her name, but it begins with 'G', Gina Something I think. She's American, and is always going on about growing up in Italy, about memories of walking through the markets, going to the fields to pick grapes, all really romantic memories. She was (i think) 4 or 6 when she moved from Italy to the States. As far as I'm concerned, she grew up in America. Personally, I can't remember too much of that age, yeah', sure, a few bits'n'bobs, but she's dismissed her entire american herratage, which is strong and rich in it's own right. Comparing living memory of 'growing up', from the ages of about 4 'till mid teens, or even mid 20s, doesn't really mean she was "bought up" in italy. She has italian culture in her family, she has italian heratidge, but she was bought up in the states... same with me, I have the same thing with jewish culture, but I'm a Londoner and a Brit, as that is where I spent my childhood... it would be like me saying I'm kenyan because I went on holiday there a lot as a kid.

I *think* without knowning, that Sean Paul and Shaggy are the same.

When people used to come back from holiday, they had to tell the rest of the class what they learnt on holiday.
So I proudly showed everyone the few words I knew, showed off the little massi figureines that I bought back, the photos of the safaris.... I was the coolest kid proudly saying "Akuna Matarta", but then Lion King came out about 6 months later and everyone thought I stole it from there =(
