Sean Kingston came on the scene in 2007 with “Beautiful Girls,” a radio staple with a tight “Stand By Me” sample. He also looks like Biggie. However, despite being from rough Jamaica, the 18-year-old Rapper Ternt Singa keeps his hip-hop joints PG and collabs with pop stars like Natasha Bedingfield. Now he’s wrapping up the follow up to his self-title album, tentatively called Point Blank, and sponsoring a remix contest on Desi Hits http://www.desihits.com/exclusives/sean-kingston-bollywood-girls/songs

Supreme Mag - Many rappers nowadays worry about being taken seriously, but you seem to walk the line between tough rap and pop. What’s different?

SK - I never shot nobody, though I was exposed to a lot of that in Jamaica, but I’m pretty happy now. For me it’s about hit records. I’m not mad. [Through touring] this music has taken me around the world. I’m blessed.

I’m not afraid to be a happy rapper. The older guys have to worry about that. I’m 18, and being from Jamaica I was a lot of that stuff, but that’s not who I am. I don’t even curse in my music because that’s not who I am.

Supreme Mag - Two thousand and seven was a pretty big year with “Beautiful Girls” and your album, and 2008 with all the remixes and collabos you’ve hoped on. What is 2009 going to look like?

SK - Working on a new album, almost done. And we have everybody on there from Young Jeezy to Stephen Marley. The sound is big, too. On the last album, I was only 17. My writing has gotten better, my concepts have gotten better, as have the lyrics and hooks. The album will be out in January or February.

Supreme Mag - And you’ve been working with a lot of people this year, like Baby Bash and Bun B.

SK - I’m just trying to keep myself relevant, but if you spread yourself out too much, you can play yourself out. I’m just trying to stay on the grind.

Supreme Mag - Tell me about this remix project with Desi Hits.

SK - It’s a producer contest. People make different beats to fit my song “Bollywood Girls,” which is a play on my song “Beautiful Songs” with a Bollywood theme. The contest ends at midnight on October 21st.
