Sean Paul last performed in Kenya in 2004, a visit that became memorable due to an unexpected incident. During his stay, he lost his mobile phone, which was said to have been stolen.
“I misplaced it when I was in a hotel, and I was asking everybody, ‘Where, where, where?’ It wasn’t theft, I just lost it. I even thought about offering a reward for its return, but nothing came of it. But big up to Kenya still, much love,” he recalled in a 2021 interview.
