What’s poppin’
Sean Paul pops in Basketball camp
 Big up to Sean Paul who took the time out to pop in on a basketball camp to give encouraging words to some children.
One eleven year old broke down, crying tears of joy as she never really believed the rumours that the DJ would be coming. She was overwhelmed with joy when she was asked to sing with the Grammy Award-winning artiste in front of her fellow campers. "When the people said he would come, I thought it wasn't true and they were just joking... I never thought in my life that I would see him." She was quoted as saying in the Prince Albert Daily Herald.
Sean Paul dropped by to offer advice about life to several hundred campers who listened intently while sitting on the huge gymnasium floor at Montreal's Dawson College. "There are ups and downs in life, just like waves in the sea," he said. "when you're up on top you're feeling good, but that's not the only feeling you need to get used to in your heart, in your brain, in your soul."

Nip it in the bud
 No, don't tell me Baby Tash just came into the biz after she walked away with the title of Magnum Queen of the dancehall and already she is enshrouded in mix up. What's this we hearing of her being threatened? According to top reports the DJ started receiving threatening phone calls after winning the competition. No, it's a big disappointment, dancehall is really going to the dogs.

Hate people like Sean Paul,bet he can't find time to visit schools in Jamaica so as to inspire kids who have no future,but he could be giving talks to Cannadans bout SP while jamaican shaking with fear.

@ Felton and Realtalk:
Are you two really serious? You sound like some unintelligent clowns. I mean, so what if SP wants to give words of encouragements to Canadian kids? And Felton you need to learn how to spell. You make me feel ashamed as a Jamaican:-( And by the way, where were you when SP donated 5 million of his hard earned cash to schools in Kingston? I can guess that you were not aware of that, because you probably just care about the latest dance move or who is on the charts, right? Well, think about this: why should SP waste his time to try to give words of wisdom to Jamaican kids (most of whom) nowadays are only concerned about crime, violence, dance moves, and sex. He is wise to speak to people who will appreciate him and listen and heed, not just say words that will fall on deaf ears. Which Jamaican DJ has done anything that is unselfish lately? Most only care about being in the news, so please think before you speak. Not because he is not "your DJ", it doesn't mean that you have to bash him. Afterall, he is doing a good thing. He is not encouraging them to do anything wrong.

Word up knowledge!! Totally agree with your post. Well said. I am not fan of anybody but it is true. Not saying he shouldn't do something in Ja too. But we must stop the segregation, kids are kids, people are people. Doing something positive should not be limited to one's country but to everyone & the whole world. I am sure Jamaica will get they turn. And trust me, I dont think anybody should have to wait on any person or celebrity to tell them how to live good. People & kids know the right think to do, but we all make our own choices.
Stay Bless. Let's us all strive for prosperity.

oonuh likkle back a wall fool fool Jamaicans fi stop chat fuc$ery. That's why uptowners always make more money off reggae music. Big up Sean Paul, he is wise enough to know that singing about killing b*ttyman all the time doesn't prove his manhood. The man know what to do for international appeal. Sean paul is a god person who make good music.
Bussing people head and mek marrow jump out, and cutting baby throat doesn't appeal to anyone other than certain Jamaicans. These ignorant people are few but them mouth so loud that they give all Jamaicans a bad name.

Yeah.., people a people, like you guys say, some a dem jamaicans them no want no form a education all some a dem want is the lastest everything, and the average youngsters them a 'gangsters' so if SP want fi help other countries, anywhere, its all good. Iam quite sure that he's done an awful lot for JAMAICA. It is what it is.

Sean Paul does have a strong tie with Canada, he has filmed many of his videos in Toronto. I bet he was in Montreal for the Reggae festival and used his down time to share some positive messages with the campers who would never dream of a Superstar dropping by during summer camp. I agree with all the conscious posters, children are children the future of this World, any good words to pass on to any child is a positive thing and God expects us to take care of the innocent souls on Earth.
