“With no disrespect, love, I mean Stonebwoy is my brother, I love him. He knows I love him. ‘Jejereje’ came out. We were all banging to it. I was in Nkroful when it came out. I said 'wow', this is a great song. I loved the song. After one week, 'Jejereje' has gone to sleep,” he remarked.Blakk Rasta also highlighted reggae icon Lucky Dube as a benchmark for musical excellence. The dub poet noted that the late Lucky Dube focused on delivering powerful messages through his music, prioritizing their impact on listeners over chasing trends.

Despite this approach, Dube’s songs consistently achieved hit status.

“I remember Lucky Dube once said he never went into the studio to make hits. He went into the studio to speak into the microphone and if the songs come out and they become hits because people resonate with the message, then it’s a different thing.”
