Ghanaian reggae-dancehall artist Stonebwoy has revealed the significant role he has played in introducing top Jamaican artists to Ghana.
Speaking on 3Music TV’s Big Convo Show, the award-winning musician claimed he was instrumental in bringing artists like Beenie Man, Morgan Heritage, Busy Signal, 10Tik, Spice, and others to the country.
During the discussion, Stonebwoy emphasises the impact of his efforts on Ghana’s reggae-dancehall culture and its growth, claiming that he deserves some credit for that.
He explains that his investments in engaging with international artists, particularly those from the Caribbean, stem from his studies into the value of global collaborations for broader recognition.
Stonebwoy also highlights his versatility as an artist, mentioning his success in other genres like Afrobeats and his extensive record of collaborations, which he claims surpasses that of any other Ghanaian musician.
