Product Description
Sean Kingston, the17 year-old Miami born, Jamaica bred artist, is not just a new face in popular music; he s accomplished the rare task of creating a new genre where rap, reggae, pop, doo-wop and remarkable songwriting all combine into something totally refreshing. Add in Sean s family roots, which cite Jamaican legendary producer Jack Ruby as his grandfather, and you have one of the most exciting debuts this year. And while hip-hop lyrics have sparked the biggest debate in years, Sean finds himself in the center of the controversy - but not where you might think. The teen prefers to show his creativity without using profanity.

If Sean Kingston weren't 17, baby-faced, and blessed with a voice like Akon's but sweeter, "Beautiful Girls"--the airwave-dominating, maniacally catchy ditty off his debut album that finds him wallowing over a long line of babes bent on dumping him--might have bombed. It's the package that makes the song, and the many others like it on this destined-for-hugeness disc, work: Take away the youthful pout and the song's innocence dissolves. Take away the lively straight-outta-Jamaica lilt and its summery vibe suffers mightily. Thrown back in, though, these elements bond like KrazyGlue; tracks like "Me Love," which fiddles with Led Zeppelin's "D'yer Mak'er" in a looser way than "Beautiful Girls" fiddles with Ben E. King's "Stand By Me," adhere forcefully but playfully to the same part of the brain that Rihanna had been reigning over till now. Still, Sean Kingston's strongest track may be its standout duet--"There's Nothin'," with Paula DeAnda doing her best junior Mariah impression, chugs along as though it's been doused in August sunshine. It'll make a fan out of anybody. --Tammy La Gorce

 Wonderfully Melodic and Sweet... August 30, 2008

Thank goodness there are still artists, in the rap field, who don't feel it necessary to fill their CD's with argumentative and swear word filled tripe. This was a wonderful debut album for a very young (17, I believe) artist, and I'm pleased to enjoy his hits: Take You There, I Can Feel It, and Beautiful Girls, as well as all the other non-filler hits.
Congratulations, Mr. Kingston! You are a success!!!

hi.
i got this album when it got released, and i havent stoped listening to it since.
it really sounds like he fakes his accent, espicially on the 2nd track when he raps he has no accent. but who cares?! he's accent is good, sounds really good.
i really like "i can feel it" "take you there" "kingston" "changes" and well...all this album!
so if you liked "Beautiful Girls" and looking for more of the same style songs, get this album!

I do not like rap that well that I would buy a whole CD but I wanted to take a chance with this Cd and it was well worth it. All the songs are great even the intro is great. There is only 1 complaint I have the Cd says it has There's Nothin (featuring The DEY and Juelz Santana) (new album version) but it is with paula deanda but you can buy the other song on iTunes. I wouldn't buy the CD just because they don't have the song. Buy it is well worth it.
Love this CD May 22, 2008
