Sean Paul charged over profanities at Reggae Sumfest

Sean Paul has been summonsed for using profanities during his set at Montego Bay's Reggae Sumfest, and is due to appear in Resident Magistrate's Court in Montego Bay.

Police have confirmed that Sean Paul has been charged with using profanities during Montego Bay's Reggae Sumfest last week.

Authorities served him with a summons shortly after leaving the stage under the law prohibiting individuals from using profanity in public, and is scheduled to appear in Resident Magistrate's Court in Montego Bay today.

The last few years has seen American MCs Ja Rule and Snoop Dogg ignoring similar summons, and eight Jamaican musicians, including Grammy winner Beenieman, have also faced profanity charges.
