Sean Paul, Koffee
Dancehall superstar Sean Paul is insisting that many Dancehall acts have not been able to have cross-over hit songs, due to a vast section of the global music audience not being able to understand Patois.
According to Sean, this is not a fault of anyone, but just happens to be the harsh reality, in a world where only a relatively minute number of people speak or understand the Jamaican vernacular, when compared to languages such as English and Spanish.
The
Temperature artist was responding to questions posed by Television Jamaica’s entertainment journalist Anthony Miller on the Entertainment Report, about why his compatriot Koffee, has not “been able to translate commercially” and “if she can’t cross over to a wider audience, who is going to out of Jamaica?”
