Burniton Music front-liner, Stonebowy says Jamaicans hardly recognize that he’s a Ghanaian whenever he pays a visit to the country, which is considered the hub of dancehall\/reggae music.<\/p>\n

According to him, he is not so fluent in speaking the English-based creole language, Jamaican Patois. However, most of the natives believe and even say he is even more fluent at it than they are.<\/p>\n

‘Tomorrow’ hitmaker further added that as an African rooted into the Jamaican culture, a lot of them seem amazed when he discloses his origin to them.<\/p>\n

Stonebowy was speaking\u00a0with Andy Dosty on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM.<\/p>\n
