Renowned event MC and entertainment pundit, MC Portfolio, has shared his view on whether Stonebwoy deserves recognition as one who introduced the Afro-Dancehall genre or not.
During a conversation on GhanaWeb Entertainment's X Space on Friday, July 4, MC Portfolio emphasized that an individual cannot claim ownership of the English word “Afro‑Dancehall,” as a genre.
He asserts that it demands a clear brand and an ambassador to carry it forward.
“You cannot leave out Stonebwoy. He has been someone who is very vocal and intentional about drumming the genre. We are not being fair to Stonebwoy if we don’t give him his flowers,” he asserted.
In an unrelated event, veteran dancehall musician Samini has warned netizens to resist attempts likely to spark a feud between him and Stonebwoy, another dancehall artiste.
This comes after the "My Own" hitmaker was questioned on X about his contribution to championing the Afro-dancehall genre.
The user with an account name Repost King noted, "Smh… assuming you right, how well did you champion this. What has been your effort in bringing to light Afro-dancehall. The fact that you advised him on fusing ayigbe to his songs doesn’t make you the originator. You are a legend undisputed but Afro-dancehall has always been 1Gad’s."
In response, Samini stated, "Put some respect on my name G. SMH I blame @stonebwoy. Tell me the difference. After that tell me who named it and who renamed it. Don’t make me and @stonebwoy fight ooo. He knows the truth I beg. DONT. Man start vex these foolish newbies. Massa talk to your fans oooo. Yooooo."
