Paul comes from a family known for swimming. Indeed, it seems that everyone in the family has an innate talent for swimming. His grandfather belonged to the first Jamaican men’s national water polo team, his father played water polo for the same team in the 1960s and competed in long-distance swimming, and his mother was a butterfly swimmer.

The now-renowned international dancehall singer was not excluded from the family tradition/talent, he also played for the national water polo team from the age of 13 until his 21st birthday.

He is a graduate of Wolmer’s Boys’ School and College of Arts, Science, and Technology (now the University of Technology), where he studied commerce with the intention of pursuing a career in swimming but had to give up potential career choices to pursue a career in music. Sean Paul was raised a Catholic.

His ethnicity is a bit complex. His paternal grandfather is Portuguese and his paternal grandmother was Afro-Caribbean. His mother is of English, Chinese and Jamaican descent.

Sean Paul Career

Before he threw himself completely into the music, Sean tried other things. He worked as a bank clerk and also as a chef in a local restaurant.

His journey to fame in the music world actually began in the late 1990s, when he was discovered by Jeremy Harding’s brother (Jeremy Harding later became Paul’s manager and producer), who told Jeremy that at a small open mic event in Kingston he had discovered someone who sounded just like the famous dancehall DJ and toaster Super Cat.

When they (Paul and Harding) finally met, it was an encounter that changed the life of the young aspiring singer forever. From this encounter came the song Baby Girl and then his first cameo appearance in the 1998 film Belly, and he also worked with DMX & Mr. Vegas on the soundtrack of the film.

In 2000, he released his debut album entitled Stage One on VP Records. The album soon reached #2 on the top reggae album charts. In 2002 he released his second album Dutty Rock with titles like Gimme the Light and Get Busy, which became big hits. The album was a huge success and sold over six million copies worldwide.
