I'm not sure, but I feel like 4 weeks at #1 has to be a first for reggae music. Sean Kingston just spent his 4th week in the throne at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart with his hit single "Beautiful Girls." In fact, not much has changed on the chart in the last week, Fergie is still sitting next to Kingston with "Big Girls Don't Cry" at #2, Timbaland's "The Way I Are" is still #3, and P...

Sean Kingston is in his own music lane, but it's a fast lane. The 17 year-old Jamaican American has dropped a summer hit with "Beautiful Girls." He raps, he produces his own beats, he doesn't cuss much, and he's cutting his own path through the music industry. Those are some of the reasons why he has been invited to play at NYC's Carifest in August. Team Legendary, the organizers of Carifes...

Sean Kingston's "Beautiful Girls" begins week three at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 music chart today. And watch out for this kid, he seems like the sweet harmless type, but he's one savvy teen. His newest single, "Me Love" is the Hot 100's fastest horse this week. It jumped from slot #28 to slot #15 in just one week to become the chart's "greatest digital gainer." We just might see Sean Kin...

Wow, I meant it when I said that Sean Kingston was in music's fast lane to the top, but, WOW! He soared 22 places to #1 with "Beautiful Girls" today! The "R&B Rookie" jumped ahead, in part due to the infectious groove of the song, but also partly from Billboard's new chart formula. Billboard's Hot 100 now calculates streaming and on-demand music as well as digital and physical sales to decide...

There's a great article about the record-setting king of the singles charts, Sean Kingston, on the Caribbean focused website Da Zone. The article sheds a bit of light on how Kingston managed to get the attention of record producer J.R. Rotem, how he came to setting his lyrics for "Beautiful Girls" to the "Stand By Me" melody, and even drops a little tidbit of his lineage. I had previously rep...

A few days ago I thought about making a post about a song you might have heard. Sean Kingston's "Beautiful Girls", which I'm quiet tired of because of its hook. Well, Maura and everyone over at Idolator already posted that, on Monday. So, while it would be redundant of me to ask why I should dance to "suicidal, suicidal", I ask some other questions. Did he actually do his first crime in '99, or...

Normally, I'm the type of person that will listen to anything, but then this "Suicidal" song comes on the radio for the umpteenth time and I just lost it. Who in their right mind thought this song was good? Seriously. I mean, at the very beginning when this "artist" opened his mouth in the sound booth, someone actually said, "okay, let him keep singing." Why are radio stations playing this and ...
