1. Deport Them (1998)
Sean Paul still had his skeptics after “Infiltrate,” et. al but “Deport Them” showed he was an artist with deep lyrical skill and uncanny hitmaking ability. Helping its cause abroad was a great video (the first minute of which also featured “Hot Gal Today”) which fit right in with the hip-hop videos of the day with its combination of humor and writhing women. Sean would go on to have much bigger hits, but “Deport Them” was the one that solidified his place at dancehall’s roundtable.
