As the visibly large Jamaican-American reggae fusion artist, Sean Kingston took the stage after one-hit wonders, Kat Deluna and Eve 6 finally concluded their dreadful performances, Fairfield students went wild. The crowd was singing, dancing, and overall the majority of attendants seemed to be enjoying themselves.

Personally I thought Kat Deluna and Eve 6’s performances were mediocre at best, but Sean Kingston was working the crowd, and sounded phenomenal singing his top hits such as “Fire Burning,” “Beautiful Girls,” “Take You There,” and so on.

Kingston may not be the top choice of performers for Fairfield’s spring concert, and he is definitely no Taylor Swift, but Kingston was working the crowd. He even came out to the front row to create some crowd interaction.

Although Sean Kingston has fallen a bit out of the spotlight recently, he certainly has made a name for himself in the music industry. Not only was Kingston’s single “Fire Burning” one of the most popular songs this summer, but he also discovered the popular, upcoming artist Iyaz who’s single “Replay” is currently one of the top tracks on the radio.

Kingston has also worked with rap legend, Lil Wayne, on the song “I’m at War,” and on his upcoming album he is working again with Wayne and popular artists T-Pain, Kanye West and Justin Bieber.

I’d say the only thing to complain about at the spring concert was that Kingston did not play nearly as long as he should have, and I’m pretty sure Fairfield students could live without Eve 6 and Kat Deluna.

Overall, the concert was a success, and for all you Sean Kingston haters out there, just remember how lucky you are to not have to suffer through Girl Talk again.
