“Stonebwoy is an Ewe boy, he has to use music from his tribe, Stonebwoy is singing more Jamaican Patoa than his own local language", highlife legend Gyedu Blay Ambolley who appears to be on a campaign to wrestle Ghanaian music from dilution and a takeover by foreign genres has advised.

He contends Ghanaians artistes must develop music from their own languages instead of copying from other countries.

Stonebwoy recently prided himself in singing in the Jamaican Patoa so well that Jamaicans were unable to decipher whether he is one of them or a Ghanaian when he performed in that country.

Mr. Ambolley was disappointed the Dancehall artiste, who has been in the news recently for his fracas with Xylofon media, has not a single song in his mother tongue, Ewe.

He questioned why Stonebwoy will leave Africa to follow Jamaicans, who have their roots in the continent.

“It’s the Jamaicans that came out with that, our brothers that were sent away to the other side of the world, they came with that Patoa, it’s their identification, they took them away from Africa. Africa is the source. So why is it that you have to leave the source and follow the branch” Ambolley lamented.

The legend added it is totally wrong for up and coming artiste to neglect their origins to follow foreign culture.
