Dancehall is the go to genre in mainstream music these days when an artist want to score a hit, just enquire Drake, Justin Bieber, Tory Lanez and others.

Sean Paul sat down with Hot 97 where he opened up nigh other artists making dancehall music, his thoughts on Drake, marijuana legalization and Donald Trump.

"Everybody is looking towards dancehall now-a-days and thats a cool vibe and as you said other people are doing it," the dancehall icon said. "I am proud of the fact that we have been doing it so long that fans are enervating it so much that other peopple but see information technology… either they're seeing [money] in it or they are just feeling the vibe."

Ebro asked Sean Paul about his thoughts on Drake new motion that is heavily influenced by dancehall and he surprisingly gave the Toronto emcee the thumbs upwardly.

"Aye I like what he [Drake] is doing musically," SP said. "The afro shell connection and I think the beats that he is choosing and going on is dope."

This is in contrast to a previous argument that Sean Paul fabricated in September when he criticized Drake and Justin Bieber for making dancehall music. "It is a sore bespeak when people like Drake or Bieber or other artists come and do dancehall-orientated music but don't credit where dancehall came from and they don't necessarily sympathize it," he said.
