To dancehall pop star Sean Paul, winning the honor for Favorite Pop/Rock Male last week at the American Music Awards was a big surprise. "I'm still shocked. I just didn't think I would take this one home," he told AOL Music backstage.

"One thing that was a big deal for me was to be able to thank people," he said. "Other awards ceremonies, it's something that takes place behind the scenes, so it was a great experience to be able to [thank people]."

It was all part of a big night that found Paul almost stepping on Snoop's toes, he said, and getting to see some old friends like Nelly Furtado and the Pussycat Dolls.

"I'm loving that people are respecting dancehall music -- music from my country -- this much," he said. "And I'm gonna keep on waving the banner for my family and fans."

Ziggy Marley's 'Love Is My Religion' marks the reggae star's first album since 2003's 'Dragonfly.' As with all his previous efforts, Marley, who recently got married, says the music told him when he had something to say.

"The most important thing for me in making a record is that I cannot say, 'I'm going to make a record now.' I have to be inspired," he says. "When the time comes to make a record, I'm gonna know, I'm gonna feel it. I can always tell when it's time."

Marley thought he was on to something early in the process. "One of the first [songs] I wrote was 'Still the Storms.' What I noticed was the lyrics were very deep. I was like, 'This record's going to be good. My writing's getting a little bit stronger and I'm getting the right inspiration.'"

He says he wants to keep reinventing reggae. "I did feel like adding more reggae roots in this record, but not like going back to the '70s," he says. "I wanted to be moving forward while using the roots as a part of my vehicle -- not killing it by going backwards." To that end, he goes for a slightly darker tone on the atmospheric 'Make Some Music' and brings a Caribbean vibe to the opening track, 'Into the Groove.'

"The groove to the first song is Caribbean-ish, and African-ish too," says the reggae heir. Marley heads out on tour later this summer with several members of his family.

No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal is taking time to nurse the budding career of Elan, the first signing to Kanal's Kingsbury Studios record label. Elan was born and raised in Los Angeles but spent three years on the road as lead singer for the Wailers, sounding so much like Bob Marley that people often thought he was lip-syncing. Elan's debut album, 'Together as One,' was released in June.

AOL Music asked Kanal, executive producer of the record, what makes Elan so special. "Elan is blessed with an amazing voice," he said. "In a genre where it is tough to gain credibility if you're not from Jamaica, Elan is someone who has broken those barriers."

The album features a duet with Gwen Stefani, as well as collaborations with Assassin, Tami Chynn, Sly & Robbie and Cutty Ranks.

"I first saw Elan sing back in 1998 when he was fronting the Wailers," Kanal said. "We were introduced a few years later, and we talked about collaborating. It wasn't until 2003, when my band went on a break, that Elan and I had the chance to get in the studio and start writing together."

Meanwhile, the ever-busy Kanal (pictured third from left) is currently back in the studio working on the next No Doubt album.

The great composer George Gershwin and the late Bradley Nowell of Sublime: A match made in heaven?

Universal Music Enterprises is preparing a special package to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Sublime's self-titled breakthrough album. The Deluxe Edition of the ska revivalists' third album (and major-label debut) will repackage the record the way Nowell, who died of a heroin overdose in May 1996, wanted it to be heard.

During the making of the original 'Sublime,' the band was unable to clear a sample from the Gershwin song 'Summertime' for use on their track 'Doin' Time.' As a result, Nowell pulled that song and shuffled the entire track listing.

Before the album was released, the group's A&R man ran into an executor of the Gershwin estate in an elevator. After explaining the circumstances of the singer's sudden death, the ban was lifted, on one condition: Submline were asked to change the lyric "doin' time" to the original (and more G-rated) "summertime." Since Nowell had never sung that word in the studio, an engineer voiced the part. The track made its way back onto the revised album and Modern Rock radio.

According to the band's management, as a tribute to Nowell ten years on, they reapproached the Gershwin estate, which recently approved the original 'Doin' Time' lyric. In addition to reinstating Nowell's original track listing, the package will contain 15 unreleased songs and remixes, and five of the band's videos.

Making an exodus of sorts, Ziggy Marley will become the first artist to sign an exclusive one-to-one deal with Target stores when the reggae heir's second solo album, 'Love Is My Religion,' drops on July 2. Released on the Marley family label, Tuff Gong International, the album will be available in the U.S. only through Target stores and the company's Web site, bypassing the usual retail channels.

Ziggy Marley and his brother Stephen will be two of the headliners when the Roots, Rock, Reggae tour returns this summer after a one-year hiatus. Joining the Marleys will be Ozomatli and former Bob Marley colleague Bunny Wailer. The tour kicks off August 6 at Reggae on the River in Redway, Calif.

In other Marley family news, Chronicle Books has just released 'Marley Legend,' a fully illustrated authorized Bob Marley biography and scrapbook featuring many previously unseen images, handwritten lyrics and other ephemera from the personal collection of the late reggae superstar and prolific father.
