Kisean Paul Anderson[2] (born February 3, 1990), known professionally as Sean Kingston, is an American reggae fusion singer and rapper. He signed with J. R. Rotem's label Beluga Heights Records to release his 2007 debut single, "Beautiful Girls", which peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100. Preceded by the song and its top 20 follow-up single "Eenie Meenie" (with Justin Bieber), his eponymous debut studio album (2007) peaked at number six on the Billboard 200, and spawned the top 40-single "Take You There". His second album, Tomorrow (2009), was supported by the top five-single "Fire Burning", and met with moderate commercial response. His third album, Back to Life (2013), failed to chart and served as his final release on a major label, but spawned the moderate hit single "Beat It" (featuring Chris Brown and Wiz Khalifa).
After his second album, Kingston launched the record label Time Is Money Entertainment, through which he signed then-unknown Canadian rapper Tory Lanez in 2010.[3]
In July 2024, Kingston and his mother were indicted on several federal wire fraud charges.[4]
