Sean Paul
Dancehall king Sean Paul’s real name is Sean Paul Ryan Francis Henriques. And he shaes his last name with another famous Jewish-Jamaican: 17th century pirate, Moses Cohen Henriques.
Sean gets his Jewish heritage from his grandfather on his father’s side, a descendent of the Spanish and Potuguese Jews who fled the British Caribbean during the Spanish Inquisition.
