Sean Paul’s Tiny Desk Concert dropped Friday (May 31) and it is as great as you’d anticipate.

The legendary reggae superstar took more than the NPR offices and transformed them into a great old-fashioned bashment from the jump. Although there was no daggering or whining to be noticed, Paul sounded just like he did when he produced the tracks that produced him an international phenomenon through the early 2000s. With a set list such as “Gimme the Light,” “Get Busy,” “Infiltrate,” “I’m Still in Love With You,” “Deport Them,” “Like Glue,” and “Temperature,” Paul proved just how lots of of his songs have aged effectively and can nonetheless get a celebration rocking.

He got assist from Nigel A. Staff (keys/musical path), Dan Policar (keys), Kemar “Spanky” Liking (drums), Davol “FletchaBass” Fletcher (bass), Shaun “Copper Shaun” Anderson (DJ), Terrence “Farenizzi” Harold (vocals), and Kerissa Spencer (vocals).

About 15 minutes into his set, immediately after performing 2000’s “Deport Them,” he had to take off his orange Palm Angels track jacket just before jumping into “Temperature” — which gave him an chance to show off all the ice he had on, such as a crazy diamond fang grill. The star also managed to get the NPR employees involved all through his set, with the smaller crowd nailing the get in touch with and response, a quite significant aspect of any dancehall set.

Sean final released an album in 2022 with Scorcha. He’s nonetheless functioning it, even though, releasing the video for “Gyal Chasin” this previous March. Hopefully his Tiny Desk can assist revitalize the bashment celebration scene.
