Very impressed with what he heard, he asked to be featured on the album.

“I was like nah, I have to be on this album; he says it’s pretty much closed and I said I don’t mind, just open up a thing...so he goes on to the album and opens a verse for me," Stonebwoy further explained.

A few weeks ago Sean Paul had Showered praises on Stonebwoy. During an Instagram live session, he commended Stonebwoy for doing authentic dancehall music.
