Big Sean

Sean Michael Leonard Anderson (born March 25, 1988), known professionally as Big Sean, is an American rapper from Detroit, Michigan. He became acquainted with high-profile rapper Kanye West prior to signing with his GOOD Music record label, an imprint of Def Jam Recordings in 2007. He gained popularity following the release of his third mixtape, Finally Famous Vol. 3: Big (2010). His debut studio album, Finally Famous (2011) peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 and spawned the Billboard Hot 100-top 40 singles “My Last” (featuring Chris Brown), “Marvin & Chardonnay” (featuring Kanye West and Roscoe Dash), and “Dance (Ass)” (remixed featuring Nicki Minaj). His second album, Hall of Fame (2013) matched its chart position and was met with similar reception, supported by its triple platinum-certified single “Beware” (featuring Lil Wayne and Jhené Aiko).

His third album, Dark Sky Paradise (2015) debuted atop the US Billboard 200 and was led by the single “I Don’t Fuck with You” (featuring E-40), which received octuple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA); each of the album’s singles—”Paradise”, “Blessings” (featuring Drake and Kanye West), “One Man Can Change the World” (featuring John Legend and Kanye West), and “Play No Games” (featuring Ty Dolla Sign and Chris Brown)—also received platinum certification. His fourth and fifth albums, I Decided (2017) and Detroit 2 (2020) likewise peaked atop the chart; the former contained the single “Bounce Back”, which peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains his highest-charting song. In 2021, he dissociated with West and parted ways with GOOD Music.
