-"Bro, what is he saying? Shit slaps, but what is he saying?"
[ Laughs ]
I'm representing the culture and I'm talking to my people,
so I'm kind of just spitting [Speaks indistinctly]
the real thing.

Hey, yo, this is Sean Paul, and this is "The People Vs."
Today, we're gonna be reviewing comments
on my video for "When It Comes to You."
Also, we'll be going back in the day
and checking on "Temperature" and reviewing that, too.
Let's see what we got here first up.
"What happened to you, Sean Paul?"
What happened to me? I don't know.
What you talking about, man?
"Pitbull, are you?"
Are -- Am I fan of Pitbull?
Am a friend of Pitbull?
Are you comparing me to Pitbull?
These are weird. Oh. [ Chuckles ]
"Oh, my fucking God, Sean Paul without hair.
Just kill me."
[ Laughs ]
That's what you like about music? Braids?
I didn't like the braids.
I had to sit on seven years.
After a while, it got kind of wacky for me.
"Big ups to Sean Paul.
Now, I would love to see a colab with him and G-Eazy."
Mm, that could be arranged.
That would be a cool hookup.
When I'm working with someone, I just kind of go with the flow.
I like what -- what -- you know, I try to enhance the sound,
what they're doing,
so that's why I'm such a good colab artist.
"Big bomboclaat chune!
Sean Paul, 'When It Comes to You.'"
[ Laughs ] Yes, sir.
Definitely right. You are correct about that one.
"After Jake Gyllenhaal story?
I was here when it was released."
Jake Gyllenhaal was on a radio station in England.
Someone called in and said,
"That dude Sean Paul is overrated,"
and he heard that.
He was like, "No way," and he went in, man.
He had my back, bro, and I don't know dude, but big up, Jake.
Salut, man.
"Is Sean Paul married?
I think I'm old enough to shoot my shot."
[ Laughs ]
Yeah, I am married,
uh, you know, but never hurts to shoot your shot, you know.
I thought I'd be answering more like hate, like, stuff,
like, and I'd be like, "Yo, fuck you,"
but these are pretty -- these are pretty cool.
I don't have to tell nobody, "Fuck you," with this one.
Moving on to comments about my video "Temperature."
Big hit song for me in 2006. Let's get in here.
"Queen of England just left the chat."
I've never talked to the Queen of England,
but I always imagined that she was walking around the palace,
like, shaking it, you know what I mean?
Like boom, boom, boom. I hope I made her shake it.
"Temperature is a beautiful concept to have about a song."
Yes.
So it's kind of like me saying,
"Yo, I'm hot. I'm -- I'm the person for you, girl."
But also, there was, like,
a comparison of violence in the song.
There was a lot of violence
happening in Jamaica at the time,
so I used, like, the storm as the violence.
And I was like, "I'm the man to shelter you from the storm."
I'm -- I'm the person you listen to to get away from all of that.
"This song is so catchy,
but I feel like if I sung in a public place,
I would get weird looks."
So this is your guilty pleasure.
They like to play the "Temperature,"
but they don't like nobody to know.
[ Laughs ]
"Back when you could make a music video
with a thermometer and a green screen."
Thanks for noticing that I put so much into this video.
"I'm 53, my house is paid for, I haven't worked in seven years,
I just did a bong and a shot of Jack while I blasted Sean Paul."
Whoo!
"Sometimes, it all works out."
Bro, check yourself before you wreck yourself.
"I have a broken leg
and I stood up after six months just to turn the music off."
Wow! Fuck you!
That's the one I can say, "Fuck you," to.
[ Laughs ]
"This song is legendary, man.
This shit was always blasting in the streets, bro.
I'm from NYC." Big up, NYC.
"And everybody had this playing,
people was dancing, good old days, man."
I'm getting the sentiment that
you guys think this is old shit, man.
I think it's timeless.
When I do step into my office, which is a studio,
I get to create stuff, or it's the stage.
I get to recreate that vibe,
and I get to go back -- way back in the day.
You know what I mean?
And it's like a time machine.
That's what music is, and that's what it's for.
Hey, yo, that's it for me, SP, the girls I move are easy.
I will catch you next time.
Love and respect you. Salut.

I've always wanted to play a bad guy, like a villain,
in what are them called, Western movies?
You see this dude come out, a cigar in his mouth,
and just a flute.
