Sean released the Guns of Navarone track in December 2020. That song describes the incessant violence in Jamaica, the struggles of youths in the ghetto and their exploitation by politicians.
The title was taken from the 1961 film The Guns of Navarone, which depicted a specialized commando team of allied and Greek soldiers, organized in 1943 during the height of Worl War II, to sabotage and destroy German artillery units on the fictional Greek island of Navarone in the Aegean Sea, and free 2,000 British soldiers on the neighbouring island of Kiros.
Boom is a 2003 Indian comedy thriller film that explored the involvement of the fashion world with the criminal underworld. The storyline surrounds here Indian top models who are participating in a fashion show hosted by a prestigious brand of diamond jewelers. One thing leads to another and there is a catfight in which hundreds of glittering stolen diamonds, set to be smuggled out of the country, fall from one of the model’s hair, only to be snatched up by photographers and celebrities alike, triggering a cat-and-mouse game between the three models and three gangsters.
Space Ship is a British film, in which a teenager fakes her own abduction by aliens, resulting in her father kick-starting a search for her.
Real Steel is a movie series, the first of which was released in 2011 and surrounded a struggling fighter-turned-promoter who reconnects with his estranged son and together they converted an old-generation robot into a mighty World Robot Boxing contender.
The Plug is a 2015 film in which the villain enlists Rilow to kill his best friend Derrick with the reward being a place in his organization, promising that refusal to carry out the execution, would end in his own death.
Crazy was inspired by the life of Hank Garland, a legendary guitar player who emerged from Nashville in the 1950s. He suffers a near-fatal car accident, and the subsequent electro-shock therapy, which was ordered by his doctors, supposedly contributes to the premature ending of his playing career at the age of 31.
Money Bag is a 2015 film in which an ever-vigilant super-heroine restores order
as criminals begin to roam the streets of New York City,
Lion Heart – In this 1990 film, actor Jean Claude Van Damme plays the role of an Ex-French soldier who starts to participate in underground street fights in Los Angeles, California, in order to make money to support his brother’s family, after his sibling is seriously injured.
Danger Zone – Danger Zone is a 1996 American action thriller adventure film. It starred Billy Zane who plays Rick Morgan, an American mining engineer who gets involved in a civil war and international conspiracy in the fictional African country of Zambeze. Robert Downey Jr. also plays Jim Scott, an ex-CIA agent who later becomes the leader of a rebel group.
Everest – This movie tells the story of New Zealander Robert “Rob” Edwin Hall, who, in May 1996, along with his colleague Scott Fischer, teamed up on a joint expedition to climb Mount Everest. The film is based on the real events of the 1996 Mount Everest disaster and focuses on the survival attempts of two expedition groups, one led by Hall and the other by Fischer.
Sean Paul had released the names of the album a few weeks ago during an interview on Radio Jamaica. At the time he revealed that Live N Livin is partially aimed at increasing Dancehall’s international streaming numbers.
He subsequently revealed that the album had served as a pacifier of feuds between deejays including the ‘beef’ between Masicka and Demarco. Demarco is producer of the Everest track which features Masicka and Skillibeng, with whom the King Inna Earth artist did not always see eye-to-eye. However, the two youngsters decided to voice together on the track after much encouragement from Sean.
