You may have grown up dancing to the school-disco thud of ‘Get Busy’, the sticky summer of ‘Temperature’, the blunt demand of ‘Gimme The Light’ – they belong to the collective muscle memory of anyone who lived through the early 2000s. Sean Paul was not background noise; he was the atmosphere itself.
Sean Paul Henriques, born in Kingston in 1973, came of age in a country where riddim is religion. By the late ‘90s, his voice was already cutting through crowded airwaves, and by the turn of the millennium, he had become one of Jamaica’s most successful cultural exports. He is a Grammy winner, a chart regular and a man who has toured more than 120 countries without losing his accent or his conviction that dancehall deserves the world’s stage.
Now, more than two decades on, he is finally stepping into Bangkok for the first time. A one-night performance in October will mark his Thai debut, though in truth, the city has been dancing with him for years. The playlists, the club remixes, the nostalgia-fuelled karaoke nights – they’ve all been rehearsals for the real thing.
So if October is already circled in your calendar, take note – this won’t be a night that slips quietly by. For those intent on being there when Sean Paul finally brings Kingston heat to Bangkok, the real question is how quickly you can secure a ticket. Here’s what you need to know.
