Sean Paul lashes out at Jamaican critics
Internationally acclaimed Dancehall/Reggae superstar, Sean Paul appears to have run out with patience regarding staunch critics of his music back home in Jamaica.
The Grammy-winning deejay, currently in the island celebrating his 39th birthday, has long been criticized by Jamaican music fans for not putting out “authentic†Dancehall songs since unveiling his Dutty Rock in 2002.  Known for doing several successful Dancehall/Reggae singles with a crossover vibe, including the recently released Got 2 Luv U featuring American singer, Alexis Jordan, Sean Paul has copped mass criticism from locals yearning for him to produce a more original Dancehall sound.
However, the We Be Burning deejay took to official Twitter account to sharply address said critics; suggesting the work he does should be appreciated more by Jamaicans.
“RRR! ALL JAMAICANS WEH NO LIKE NOR RATE MI OR MY MUSIC GO S*CK U MADA WIT STRAW!!! A ME A REPRESENT U! RRR!!!†he tweeted.
Shortly thereafter, fans called out Sean Paul for his tough talk. Upon reading fan retorts, Sean Paul further clarified his stance.

He added, “BLESSINGS SAME WAY!!!BEEN FLYING THE FLAG 4 JACANS 2 B TREATED AS EQUALS!!!SO WHEN A 1 DOE RATE DAT IT MEK I WANDA WHY MI A DWEET.â€
Meanwhile, Sean Paul continues to promote his latest project, The Material Riddim which features several top names such as Voicemail, Raine Seville and Mr. Vegas amongst others.
Additionally, the prominent deejay held a birthday party on Wednesday at the Fiction Lounge in Kingston as part of his party series, Brand New Machine.
