“He dropped his first commercial single in 2012 and was quickly noticed thanks to tracks ‘Climax’ featuring Samini and ‘Ghetto Love’ featuring Irene Logan, which exploded on to the scene. The singles garnered him nominations at the Ghana Music Awards and appeared on his first album, ‘Grade 1’.
“2021 saw the release of his single ‘Love Power’, with much-beloved reggae legend Alpha Blondy, which tapped into old-school reggae roots.
2022 opened up a brand new chapter for Stonebwoy as he releases his first single with Def Jam/ Universal, ‘Therapy’.
