Born on February 3, 1990, Sean Kingston spent his early youth in the Half Way Tree section of his parents' hometown of Kingston, Jamaica – hence his name, before moving to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida at age six. By 1996, Sean's love of music led him to a prodigious performance of Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You", forever changing his path. "My mom heard me, and she started bringing me around to family members. Then, I graduated from singing, and started picking up rapping from listening to Ice Cube and Slick Rick." The gangster raps of Cube and the storytelling of Rick the Ruler had a profound effect on the boy, who also was exposed to heavy doses of Buju Banton, Dennis Brown, and Rakim from his young parents. Not only did their music affect Sean, but so did their traits. "I feel like I'm my father, 'cause I got a hustler's mentality; if I want something, I'm gonna get it. I'm like my mom, because we're picky about what we do, but we're always gonna make the right choice," says the 19-year-old today.
By his early teens, Sean Kingston was performing his raps throughout South Florida. "I did talent shows and showcases, but I never really battled," he says of his effort to get discovered. With Ft. Lauderdale twenty miles north of Miami, Sean has already shared stages with Trina, Pitbull, Ludacris, Pretty Ricky, and Trick Daddy. Like Trick, Sean has definitely felt the allure of street life. Beginning with a breaking-and-entering charge at age 11, Sean has seen his share of trouble. As the youngest of three supportive siblings, this let down the boy's mother, presently incarcerated herself for identity fraud. "I've been through a lot. I did 21 days in jail, been to boot camp, got sent to Jamaica, slept in cars with my family; I had a rough life," says an appreciative Sean today.
Around 2004, Sean began incorporating elements of his Reggae heritage with his rapping abilities. The gifts have allowed Sean's music to have a unique blend of street raps with Caribbean flare and catchy, homegrown hooks. This one-of-a-kind presence eventually led Sean Kingston's music to the ears of chart-topping producer Jonathan "J.R." Rotem (The Game, Rick Ross, Britney Spears, 50 Cent, Rihanna, Dr. Dre, etc.), who quickly saw potential in the teenage rapper. "He sent me two of his early tracks, and I recorded them, and sent them back in two days," says Kingston. Soon after J.R. and Zach Katz signed the artist to their Beluga Heights record label – and subsequently Cinematic Music Group for Management, a three-way bidding war between Warner Brothers, Atlantic, and Epic/Sony developed.
In addition to having J.R. producing the majority of the album, producers Cool & Dre, DJ Khaled, Just Blaze and others are expected to contribute tracks. In terms of guests, Sean looks forward to appearances by Akon, Rick Ross, Baby Cham and Damian Marley.
As hip-hop moves away from the limited expectations of "kiddie rappers," Sean thinks today's young listeners deserve more, "When people hear my music, I want them to be inspired. Whether a White kid or a Black kid, I want them to know, 'Damn, imagine me being in his predicament.' I want to send messages, and I rep for the streets as a real ass n$#%@. It's all about being true." As most 16-year-olds are concerned with getting a job, Sean Kingston is sitting in the driver's seat of hip-hop's future, and like late great Biggie Smalls, he's got a story to tell.
Can't Let Go
Sean Kingston Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Life ain't the same how we use to be known
Out the window you letting everything go
I say my whole world use to be about you
Now it's kinda strange living
Life without you i can't even think now
We ain't anything now
Yeah remember them days I was
Accepted all my fairs and
Accepted all my pain
We were so close don't let it go nooo
Don't let me go don't let me go
Don't let me go, Don't let me go
Don't let me go don't let me go
Don't let me go don't let me go
I keep reminiscing how you use to be mine
No other women it was you on my mind
Can't replace it all I can do is face it
See why would u leave me
You left me to be free
I need you but we don't speak
And I hardly see you
We should work it out why
You playing these games
You loved me back then
But now everything changed we were so close
Don't let it go no don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go, Don't let me go
Don't let me go don't let me go
Don't let me go datpiff dot com

The singer reflects on the days when they were close and how different life is now that they are no longer together. The person they once held dear is now letting everything go and their whole world used to revolve around them. It's a strange and difficult adjustment to live without that person, as it becomes unthinkable to even imagine a life without them. The singer remembers waiting in the rain, accepting all the ups and downs of the relationship, emphasizing the significance and intimacy they once shared. They plead for the person not to let go, desperately hoping to rekindle what they once had.
Overall, the lyrics express a sense of loss, regret, and a strong desire to reconcile and restore what was lost. The singer is unable to replace the person and can only confront the reality and face the pain of their absence.

Remember those days when we use to be close
Recall the times when we had a strong bond and were emotionally connected
Life ain't the same how we use to be known
Our lives have changed and we are no longer recognized as the same people we once were
Out the window you letting everything go
You are abandoning and neglecting everything we had together
I say my whole world use to be about you
I used to revolve my entire world around you
Now it's kinda strange living
Now it feels unfamiliar and odd to live without you
Life without you i can't even think now
I can't even imagine my life without you anymore
We ain't anything now
We are nothing to each other now
Yeah remember them days I was
Yes, recall those days when I was
Waiting in the rain
Patiently enduring difficult times
Accepted all my fairs and
Accepting all the hardships and challenges in our relationship
Accepted all my pain
Accepting all the emotional pain and suffering
We were so close don't let it go nooo
We had such a strong bond, please don't let it fade away
Don't let me go don't let me go
Please don't leave me, don't abandon me
I keep reminiscing how you use to be mine
I constantly think about how you used to belong to me
No other women it was you on my mind
I only had thoughts of you, no other women occupied my mind
Can't replace it all I can do is face it
I can't find a substitute for our connection, so I must confront and accept it
See why would u leave me
I wonder why you decided to leave me
You left me to be free
You left me in order to find freedom and independence
I need you but we don't speak
I still have a need for you, but we no longer communicate
And I hardly see you
I rarely get to see you anymore
We should work it out why
We should try to resolve our issues and reconcile
You playing these games
You are engaging in manipulative and deceptive behavior
You loved me back then
You used to love me in the past
But now everything changed we were so close
But now everything has changed, although we were once so close
Don't let it go no don't let me go
Don't allow our connection to fade away, please don't leave me
Don't let me go
Don't abandon me
Don't let me go, Don't let me go
Please, don't leave me, don't let me go
