"Dynamite" is a song by Jamaican rapper and singer Sean Paul featuring Australian singer-songwriter Sia. It was released by Island Records as the fourth single from Paul's eighth studio album Scorcha on 22 October 2021.
"Dynamite" marks the second collaboration between Sean Paul and Sia. [1] In 2016, Sia released a version of her single " Cheap Thrills" featuring Paul. [2] It later reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent four weeks there. [3] After this, Paul says he and Sia knew they would record another single to act as its follow-up. [4] When Paul sent Sia a working version of "Dynamite", she told him that "he had another hit on his hands". [5]
Sean Paul announced the release of "Dynamite" via his social media accounts on 16 October 2021 [6] and it was released shortly after on 22 October. [7]
"Dynamite" is an upbeat pop and dancehall song. [4] [8] The Independent described it as a "feel-good dancefloor-filler". [5] It was produced by Canadian duo Banx & Ranx, Greg Kurstin, and Jason Jigzagula Henriques. Banx & Ranx and Kurstin were involved in songwriting too, alongside Paul, Sia, and Nyann "News" Lodge.
