H says they developed great chemistry which made making work very easy with the Bhimnation boss.
In an exclusive interview with JoyNews’ Becky at the duo’s first concert in London, the group made up of Brothers Antonio and Fradique said they appreciate the level of creativity shown by Stonebwoy.
“It was really interesting, we got introduced to Stonebwoy by a colleague and that was it. We called Stonebwoy and he listened to the music, we kept in touch with him. It was really good chemistry and we started making the version of our music Te Amo. it was right away one day in the studio.”
The group added “We met him at Lisbon and you can’t believe how much of a nice person Stonebwoy is. We hope to come to Ghana to see all of you soon.”
