Born Kamaljit Singh Jhooti (March 26th, 1981) but better known by his stage name, Jay Sean, Sean has found huge success and crossover appeal with his bhangra-infused R&B.
Growing up in London, UK, Jay Sean was exposed to the melting pot of music that is present in the UK capital, initially finding an interest in rap and grimmest failed to break into the scene. Turning to R&B, Sean found greater success, singing to the label 2Point9 in 2003.
With his label mates, producer Rishi Rich and Juggy D, Sean recorded his debut single later that year. “Dance With You (Nachna Tere Naal)” became a huge success in the UK, peaking at number 12 in the Singles Chart. This breakout success prompted a major label deal with Virgin Records, with Sean dropping out from his studies to become a doctor as a result. His debut album, “Me Against Myself” arrived in 2004, reaching number 30 in the charts, alongside two top ten singles. The album also became a huge hit in India, going multi-platinum, helping to secure Sean a role in the Bollywood film “Kya Kool Hain Hum” (2005).
Leaving Virgin Records, Sean returned to 2Point9 for his second effort, “My Own Way” in 2008, which bettered the success of his debut, reaching number six on the UK albums chart. Alongside the album’s success, Sean also gained two Top 20 hits in the UK, as well as in Poland, Portugal, Romania and Bulgaria.
Desiring to break into the American market, Sean changed his sound and signed with the Cash Money label, releasing the single “Down,” alongside Lil Wayne. “All or Nothing” was released that year, followed by a Nicki Minaj collaboration on the single “2012 (It Ain’t The End).”His second release on Cash Money came after a year’s delay in 2013, titled “Neon,” which included guest spots from Rick Ross, Ace Hood and Busta Rhymes.
Read moreJay Sean - a name that he presumably thought would look better on a record sleeve than the one he was born with, Kamaljit Singh Jhooti - has been musically active in one form or another for fifteen years now, an impressive feat given what a fickle mainstream industry he’s found himself working in. He initially came to prominence through the UK underground scene in 2003 with hit single ‘Dance with You’, and went on to sign to Virgin, have a further pair of top ten hits - ‘Eyes on You’ and ‘Stolen’ - in the UK, and release a debut record, Me Against Myself, that sold in excess of two million copies in Asia. Eager for a new break in the Western world, though, he eventually signed to Cash Money and continues to record to this day, with last year’s Neon - his fourth full-length - featuring collaborations with Busta Rhymes and Rick Ross. Back in his home country, he still retains a sizeable cult following, but his success in the U.S. - he topped the charts with ‘Down’ - means his live opportunities in the UK have been limited. He did, though, manage a short run of dates back in 2011, selling out some big rooms - including London’s Hammersmith Apollo. Wearing his trademark sharp white suit and shades, he wowed fans, focusing primarily on Cash Money material whilst flanked by a hype man; he might not have been the same Jay Sean some of that London crowd remembered, but he remained a star in his hometown.
English performer Kamalkit Singh Jhooti, better known as Jay Sean, almost single handedly popularized Bhangra-R&B fusion. Once he dominated the Asian charts, he took the UK charts as well as the US charts by storm following the release of his “All Or Nothing” album. This gave him the opportunity to travel the world to perform for his millions of fans. Not surprisingly, Jay Sean is a great performer. His show sets blend together pre-recorded tracks with live instrumentation to give it a different, broader sound. His vocals are just as you hear them on his album leaving no evidence of major voice editing when he was recording his album. Highly energetic and extremely engaging throughout the entire show, he really gives the audience exactly what they are expecting and more. A complete flirt, he clearly picks out specific people in the audience and makes it so that he is serenading them. Throughout the hour-long set, he performed a majority of the songs from his “All Or Nothing” album, including all his hits like “Down,” “Ride It” and “Do You Remember.” He comes across as really humble for the opportunities that he’s been given and for the love and support that his fans give him.
