THE WAY
This is still my best song
Da Royal General
as much as Sean Paul wouldn't be konsidered to be a top tier artiste/deejay by some Jamaicans you kan't deny his presence in the music world.
he's one of the yutes of the 90's (& beyond) that has amassed a decent musical katalog since he stepped in the music business.
