Jamaican artists Sean Paul and Shenseea are set to ignite the music scene with their contributions to the highly anticipated Bad Boys: Ride Or Die soundtrack. The film, starring the iconic duo Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, will hit theaters across the United States on June 7, promising not only thrilling action but also an electrifying musical backdrop.
Sean Paul's Return with Two Major Singles
Sean Paul, a staple in the reggae and dancehall genres, will grace the soundtrack with his distinctive voice on two singles. The first, "Light Em Up," is a collaboration with none other than Will Smith. This track marks their second partnership, following their memorable appearance on Shaggy’s remix of "Hey Sexy Lady" back in 2002. The second single, "Bad Boys," serves as the title track and features the energetic Trueno, promising a powerful anthem befitting the film's legacy.
Shenseea's Impactful Presence
Shenseea, another prominent figure in the dancehall scene, brings her unique flair to the soundtrack with the single "Bam Bam," featuring Myke Towers. The title stirs curiosity among fans, many wondering if it will sample Sister Nancy’s legendary dancehall classic of the same name. Shenseea and Myke Towers are no strangers to collaborative success; their previous hit, "Infamous," was part of the Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse soundtrack, which debuted in June 2023.
