Sean Paul( left ) and TOK
THE AIR IS apparently clear between Sean Paul and TOK.
TOK had taken offence to a comment Sean Paul reportedly made against the group's song Chi Chi Man. The comment which was carried on the website Virgin.net ,quoted Sean Paul as saying that TOK's song Chi Chi Man is an example of songs that degrade the music. TOK's objection to Sean Paul's comment was published in THE WEEKEND STAR of November 4.
"Wi neva really expect that from Sean Paul cause we an him deh pon a level yah now, suh wi nuh really know why him seh dem ting deh. Wi never like the fact seh him mek di statement a seh why 'these dudes' waste time doing songs like these", the article quotes TOK as saying.
CIVILITY
However, at the launch of Party with the Stars, presented by Smirnoff Experience on Friday, the two were civil towards each other, even posing for photos together.
"We neva really follow it up still. We nuh have nothing against him, as long as we nuh see more article with things like that," said Flexx, from T.O.K.
Jerome Hamilton, one of the Directors for Headline Entertainment, agents for both Sean Paul and T.O.K, says things are o.k. between the two. "As far as I know, everything is okay," he said. Sean Paul was unavailable for comment as he was said to be overseas.
T.O.K, however supported Jerome's word on the matter. "If what him say is true, then we take him word for it. But if nothing else come out, then you done know," said Flexx.
Sean Paul, T.O.K and Tami Chynn will perform at Party with the Stars, presented by Smirnoff Experience. The event will take place on Friday, December 23, 2005, at the Palisadoes Go Kart Track.
Sean Paul and T.O.K have successfully captured their share of the international market, and continue to make strides overseas.
