In a recent interview on Hitz FM, Stonebwoy praised the iconic African Reggae performer Alpha Blondy, who is of Ivorian ancestry.
The Ghanaian Dancehall performer who just got the uncommon opportunity to collaborate with Alpha Blondy stated he would be grateful if the great of Ivory would bless him.
“I bow to Alpha Blondy. I want him to bless me because the Alpha Blondy(s) are finished. I aspire to be like him,â€Â Stonebwoy.
But this did not always have the desired results. Indeed, Seydou was expelled from college in 1972 and the teenage rebel was sent to neighbouring Liberia to finish his studies at a school in the capital, Monrovia.
This move opened up new horizons for young Seydou. The official language of Liberia is English, which also meant that Seydou made enormous progress in the language he had started learning at school in Côte d’Ivoire.
After finishing school in Liberia, Seydou was thus perfectly well equipped to move to New York and continue his English studies in the Big Apple (SweetWineGroup).
