Yasmin Evans presents a 1Xtra documentary about the life & music of Sean Paul
Sean Paul has been making hit records for over 20 years. He has collaborated with some of the world’s biggest pop stars, sold over 26 million records, and is one of Jamaica’s most successful recording artists.
But who is the man behind the music & where did this music come from? Yasmin Evans went to Jamaica to find out.
On one incredible journey around Kingston, Sean treated us to an exclusive performance at the legendary Tuff Gong International, we got a glimpse inside his studio and discovered how his most iconic tunes were made.
We then followed Sean from Jamaica to the UK, and went behind the scenes as he prepared to play at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Middlesbrough
Featuring: Anne-Marie, Annie Mac, Jax Jones, David Rodigan, Trevor Nelson, Naomi Cowan, Toddla T, Seani B, Idris Elba & more
