Sean Paul Ryan Francis Henriques (born 9 January 1973) is a Jamaican dancehall deejay. He released his first album, ''Stage One'', in 2000. However, it was in 2002 that he gained international fame after releasing his next album, ''Dutty Rock.'' The single "Get Busy" topped the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart in the United States, as did "Temperature" (2005), off his third album, ''The Trinity''. Paul frequently invokes the nickname "Sean da Paul", originating from the similarity between his stage name and cricketer Shivnarine Chanderpaul.Most of his albums have been nominated for Grammy Awards for Best Reggae Album, with ''Dutty Rock'' winning the award. Paul has been featured in many other singles, including chart-toppers "Baby Boy" by Beyoncé, "Breathe" by Blu Cantrell, "What About Us" by The Saturdays, "Rockabye" by Clean Bandit, "Cheap Thrills" by Sia, and "Fuego" by DJ Snake.
"Cheap Thrills" and "Rockabye", along with Paul's own "No Lie" (2016), each have over 1 billion views on YouTube, with "Rockabye" having reached over 2.7 billion views. Provided by Wikipedia
