Sean Paul, who was recently presented with a plaque from the Recording
Industry Association of
America (RIAA) for selling a staggering 26 million records, has been enjoying an unbroken string of massive hit singles in the 2 years, most recently with the single Body featuring Atlanta superstars
Migos which was the follow up to the worldwide hit No Lie featuring Dua Lipa. Add Tek Weh Yuh
Heart with Tory Lanez, and the
Clean Bandit collaboration Rockabye, which spent nine weeks at number one in the UK charts and, of course, his Grammy nominated Number 1 Billboard, global smash with Sia on Cheap Thrills, and it is fair to say that the reggae superstar has rarely been away from the higher reaches of the charts.
