Sean Paul Turns Up the Temperature and Delivers Dancehall Hits on NPR’s Tiny Desk


Sean Paul performed a career-spanning setlist on NPR Tiny Desk Concert including 'Get Busy,' 'Temperature,' 'Gimme the Light,' 'Like Glue,' and more.

“This ain’t no Tiny Desk no more,” the Jamaican singer and rapper declared as he prepared to kick off his set for the concert series, which featured two decades worth of career highlights from a bonafide hit-maker. “All right, so what you say we now go back to the early day beginnings?” The set continued with “Infiltrate” and “Deport Them,” which both appeared on his debut album Stage One(2000) and “I’m Still in Love With You” from 2002’s Dutty Rock. The next time, when anybody asks you why we didn’t left, you can tell them we stick to the girl dem like glue.” After perfectly teeing up “Like Glue,” the reggae and dancehall giant closed out his performance with the ultimate Sean Paul heater, “Temperature.”
