A global icon of dancehall, Sean Paul is making his exciting return to France with a Paris date that's simply unmissable. After leaving a mark on several generations with his worldwide hits, the Jamaican artist invites his fans to join him at the Zénith de La Villette as part of his international tour, the Rise Jamaica Tour.
Born in Kingston to a family with diverse roots (Portuguese, English, African, and Jamaican), Sean Paul was immersed in music from a young age. Before fully dedicating himself to his artistic career, he even made a name for himself as a professional swimmer, representing Jamaica at a high level. By the late 1990s, he made a definitive choice for dancehall and quickly established himself as one of the essential faces of the genre.
