Singer Sean Paul has been popped on drug charges at -- where else? -- a reggae concert in Sweden this weekend. Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
Swedish cops tell us Paul was brought from the huge Uppsala Reggae Festival to a local police station on suspicion of possessing narcotics. We hear 200-300 people also were brought in from the Fest this weekend, also on drug-related charges.
In addition to concertgoers, police say ten (!) artists performing at the show also were hauled in for questioning -- they later were released.
Cops tell us they have sent all "evidence" to a lab for testing, and will have results in a month.
Reps for Sean Paul had no comment.
Stay tuned ...

The Festival organizer should be fired. The Festival was supposed to be book in Amsterdam!!!!
WTF?? Reggae and weed are like peanut butter and jelly!! Give the poor guy a break. Sweden officials must be bored and have nothing else better to do!
TMZ IS RELEASE THERAPY FOR RACIST:
What did they expect holy water to be passed around!!
Man when this man said "Just gimme the light and pass the Dro" DUH!!! Yeah this needed to had been in Amsterdam. Geez I can't listen to any Reggae or Dancehall artist without sparkin one. It's like a requirement of the Music. Section 420 sheez
Are they really wasting their time busting party goers at a Reggae show? How silly. That's part of Reggae nation, smoking weed and having a good time. And to go as far as busting the talent for the show, crime in that country must be at an all time low. I guess I won't be going there to smoke weed.
