Sean Paul Ryan Francis Henriques (born January 9, 1973), simply known as Sean Paul, is a Jamaican reggae and dancehall musician.
Sean Paul was born in Kingston, Jamaica, and spent his early years "comfortably" in Upper Saint Andrew Parish, a few miles north of his birthplace. His parents were both talented athletes, and his mother Frances is a well-known painter. His father Garth is a Sephardic Jew of Portuguese descent, and his mother is of Afro-Caribbean and Chinese Jamaican descent; both were born in Jamaica. Many members of Sean Paul's family are swimmers. His grandfather was on the first Jamaican men's national water polo team. His father also played water polo for the team in the 1960s, and competed in long-distance swimming, while Sean Paul's mother was a backstroke swimmer. Sean Paul played for the national water polo team from the age of thirteen to twenty-one. However, he gave up the sport in order to launch his musical career. He attended the Wolmers High School for Boys, where he was trained as a classical flautist, Belair High School and the College of Arts, Science, and Technology (CAST) which is now known as the University of Technology (UTech).
