Sean Kingston in Kingston for Coke Zero Concert
It will be the first time that international reggae-influenced recording artiste Sean Kingston will be performing in Kingston, and by all indications he intends to make his premier in Jamaica’s capital one to remember.
With a fresh album released in September, Tomorrow, and a slew of rhythmic and infectious hit singles like Suicidal, Take You There, and Beautiful Girls, patrons can look forward to a full-fledged feature performance from Kingston – who was born Kisean Jamal Anderson.
Sean Kingston will not forget to give Jamaicans a taste of the musical adventure he calls Tomorrow, which is his sophomore studio album, which he maintains “is ahead of its time”. The 14-track album was released on September 22, and has been racking up critical acclaim and chart successes.
Featuring some awesome collaborations from some of the biggest names in music today, including of-The-Moment rapper Lil’ Wayne, Senegalese superstar Akon, Haitian recording artiste and producer Wyclef Jean and Pop princess Gwen Stefani.
“I wanted to be different, and I wanted to do something that was new,” Sean Kingston said, adding that “It’s definitely not something that you’d hear on the radio every day, I wanted to go a little big left with it so that’s why it’s called Tomorrow. The songs on it aren’t songs that people would expect from Sean Kingston”
The singer comes to Kingston to perform at the Cable and Wireless Golf Academy, as Coke Zero presents Sean Kingston in Concert, an event that the beverage’s country manager Chris Hardy says will make an indelible splash on the entertainment scene.
Hardy just might be right, as Sean Kingston is getting ready to share the stage with the sweet Coke Zero artistes , Chino, and D’Angel in addition to an impressive cadre of local stars such as Etana, Tifa, Laden, Alaine, Tessanne Chin, Elephant Man, Ding Dong and Demarco.
“Firstly, the price for admission is only $100. That’s right, take $100 to any branch of Mothers’ or Burger King, along with three Coke Zero labels, and you get your ticket. There’s no better deal out there,” Hardy said.
