You know Sean P from his hit songs with the YoungBloodZ and his features on smash records Cherish "Do It Do It," Sammie "You Should Be My Girl," Lil Jon "Snap Yo Fingers," and much more! Stay tuned for more from Sean P! His debut solo album "Very Necessary" is coming 2008.
Lil Jon called him to add some swagger to his smash single "Snap Yo Fingers." R&B quartet Cherish enlisted him to add some zest to their lead offering, "Do It To It." Crooner Sammy recruited him to add some muscle to his comeback track, "You Should Be My Girl." That¹s right, whether rap or R&B, a hard beat or one that is perfectly suited for daytime radio, Sean P is the man who usually gets the call to take songs to the next level with his expertly crafted raps.
Now, the Atlanta artist is prepping for the release of his highly anticipated debut solo album. The work-in-progress collection will feature Sean P's trademark interests: having fun and flossing a little bit as he does his thing. "With this whole album, I'm representing my swag," says Sean P, who rose to prominence as one-half of the YoungBloodZ, whose hits "Damn!," "Presidential" and "85" established them as the hottest rap duo from Atlanta this side of OutKast. "I've got the same swag that I've had with the YoungBloodZ, but now I'm an individual. J Bo was more of the hardcore side and I was more of the player that had a little swag with it.
Now I¹m able to put my swag all the way out there and the folks that dig my swag will be able to get everything.
The lead single from the album, "Everywhere We Go", was produced by Miami based hit-makers, Cool & Dre and features Terror Squad star, DJ Khaled.
Another track on the album, already enjoying burn on radio, is Sean P¹s boast-heavy, club-ready "U Ain't Know," which was produced by and features T-Pain and nods to the Audio 2 classic "Top Billin'." "It just had that old school feel," Sean P says. That's what popped in my head with that song.
I flipped it around a little bit.
Elsewhere, Sean P sums up his aura on the bass-heavy "Swag," establishes his solo status on "Watch Me Do My Thang" and flexes his storytelling abilities on the sly "U See It," a detailed breakdown of some of the women he¹s met while traveling the globe. Jazze Pha and Scott Storch are among the high-powered producers working on Sean P¹s album, but he's also making a point to allow promising beat smiths such as Raw Beats an opportunity to shine throughout the high-energy collection.
That open-mindedness extends to his music-making outlook. "I like to have a good time," he says. "I'm a cool, laid-back cat. That's why when you hear me, I'm not talking about a whole lot of shooting --em up and all that. I try to just bring the fun back to the music. I like music that makes you feel good and want to do your little dance.
Since he met YoungBloodZ partner-in-rhyme J Bo in middle school, Sean P's priority has always been making feel-good music. He prefers not to dwell on his past -- which includes a string of evictions as a child and a cursory relationship with his father. It's a testament to Sean P's positive outlook on life and just how much he appreciates all he has accomplished -- including a gold album for the YoungBloodz's 2003 release, Drankin' Patnaz -- that his music promotes enjoying yourself.
I dont make no sad songs that folk are going to cry over, he says. "I ain't with all that. I can do that at the house. When I go to the studio, I want the music to be loud, bumping and jumping all over the place." No wonder he's in high demand.
