Sean Kingston was discovered through MySpace by Tommy Rotem at Beluga Heights, and signed to the label in a partnership deal with Sony. Beluga is a label notable for its focus on discovering and developing artists. In an interview with HitQuarters label head and producer J.R. Rotem described this process with regards to Kingston:

“Sean Kingston was a rapper when we found him and it was a development process to get him more melodic. At Beluga we essentially refine the talent so that it’s more of a marketable product.”

In a venture between Epic Records and Koch Records, Kingston recorded and released the single “Beautiful Girls” in May 2007. The single, based on the bass line and lyrical “association” of the 1961 hit “Stand by Me” by Ben E. King, reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and topped the UK Singles Chart along with many other international charts. Similarly, the song “Me Love” samples the main hook out Led Zeppelin’s “D’yer Mak’er”, from their 1973 album Houses of the Holy. The song also debuted at number one in Australia, where it knocked off Fergie’s “Big Girls Don’t Cry”, which had been at number one for nine weeks. The song stayed on the Canadian Hot 100 number one spot for over six weeks before getting knocked down to third place by the Plain White T’s. “Beautiful Girls” remained at number one in Canada longer than any other song in 2007. In 2007, Kingston was the opening act for Gwen Stefani’s The Sweet Escape Tour and for select dates on Beyoncé’s The Beyoncé Experience Tour. Since Sean is a Jamaican singer, he got his stage name “Kingston” from the capital of Jamaica called Kingston, Jamaica. Which lead him to having the stage name “Sean Kingston”.
