Sean Paul, Sia Unleash ‘Dynamite’. Sean Thanks Mom for the Heads Up.

A couple days ago, dancehall artist Sean Paul reunited with Sia, releasing what’s described as a club anthem. The track, “Dynamite” has been characterised as “an indisputable pop banger to round out the year,” by publicist Ronnie Tomlinson of Destine Media.

Produced by Banx & Ranx and Greg Kurstin, who’s worked with artistes like Adele, Pink and The Foo Fighters, single relies on dancehall-centric beats and Sia’s trademark quavering voice as she belts “Light me up and set me free,” along with Sean Paul’s undeniable dance inducing riffs.

The track marks a highly anticipated follow-up collaboration between the genre-bending artists since their smash hit “Cheap Thrills,” also produced by Greg Kurstin, which has racked up over 1.6 billion YouTube views since its 2016 release.  

“’Dynamite’ started out as just a good vibe song. After recording ‘Cheap Thrills’ Sia and I knew we would record another single and ‘Dynamite’ is the second installment,” said the dancehall artiste about the single. Sean Paul added, “Banx and Ranx, Greg Kurstin, myself and Sia, worked on this single and I hope people gravitate towards it like our first single. ‘Dynamite’ is another feel good record for me and I just want to thank Sia and her entire team, my team Duttyrock, my management team and big up my mom who introduced me to Sia’s music.”

Sean Paul recently shared a cheeky new single “Only Fanz” featuring Ty Dolla $ign. Empowering women who creatively earn their living, “Only Fanz” garnered acclaim from Vibe hailing it a “tropical banger,” while Hot New Hip Hop declared it “one of the most fun songs of the summer.”
