Singer/songwriter Sean Kingston might be sporting diamond necklaces worth thousands of dollars these days, but his life hasn t always been that flashy. Splitting his childhood between Miami, Florida, and Kingston, Jamaica, Sean dealt with more hardship than most kids. His parents were divorced. A run-in with the law at age eleven landed him in jail. By sixteen, Sean was homeless. Even with all that hardship, nothing stopped him from pursuing his music career. A big fan and user of MySpace, Sean sought out a record producer who could make him famous. With a lot of persistence, he found the perfect person to get the job done producer J.R. Rotem. In less than a year, Sean topped the charts with Beautiful Girls, a song about heartbreak and losing a girlfriend. When faced with tough times, many people give up. Sean has pushed forward. This artist is living his dream.
