Attendees can expect a setlist loaded with nostalgia and dancefloor energy. Sean Paul's back catalogue includes anthems like Temperature, We Be Burnin', Like Glue and Got 2 Luv U, and his extensive list of collaborations has kept his sound relevant across generations.

@el_chapo_stige was more decisive, simply saying: "6 December will be there"
Not everyone was sold, though. @hellensinclair had a vivid warning for prospective ticket buyers: "Haa it's ok I am out, last time I went to his shows and Akon and sports stadium the show started and ended with me on the queue. NO-NO"
