SEAN PAUL - February 2nd at Metropolis

 
Gillett Entertainment Group and Suite Revue announced today that Jamaican Dance Hall superstar, SEAN PAUL will bring his Grooveland Tour to Montreal on February 2nd !

Sean Paul first sparked the world in 2002 with his breakout hit, Gimme The Light, and the fire has been burning brightly ever since. Hot on the heels of his multi-platinum, Grammy-winning classic album, Dutty Rock, he dropped the 2005 RIAA platinum smash The Trinity. That album led off with the Top 10 single We Be Burnin, followed by the #1 smash Temperature. Now Sean Paul is stoking the flames once more with his fourth album, Imperial Blaze.

The Kingston-born rhyme singer has already sold more than 10 million albums worldwide, and has become the most successful Jamaican artist of all time on the U.S. charts - spurred by a trio of #1 pop singles, and five top ten hits. He has done more than any other dancehall artist to bring the hardcore sound of Kingston to new audiences around the world. Since his prophetically titled 2000 debut, Stage One, Sean Paul has proven time and again that modern Jamaican reggae can be a viable genre in the international music market. But the explosive energy of Imperial Blaze indicates that he's only getting started.

Although he has collaborated with hip-hop stars like 50 Cent, The Clipse, and Busta Rhymes in the past, Sean Paul’s main emphasis is on his own sound. ‘’Dancehall is the most underground music in the world and our artists are most misrepresented. But were gonna do it star. Were gonna show people. And even though weve done it time and time again, some people still act like they don’t want to give reggae music a try. But this music is big in all corners now. So all I’m saying is show some respect’’.

His latest album entitled "Imperial Blaze" released on August 18, 2009 just received a Grammy nomination for “Best Reggae Album”.
