Shadow was actually born in Trinidad...
How many Imixers-including those that are trying to separate Trinidad from Tobago know that?...
That's a little known fact. He is Trinidad born but Tobago raised. But it dosen't matter what part of TnT de man born in because as a son of the soil, his music is something to be very proud of. He is a living legend. OHHHHH YEAHHHHH! |

Nah ah only joking! Is true! I discovered that the year he made the "stranger" road march which was like a BIG come back for him and that info came out. Many people still dont know that. I think its only the politicians who like to mash up so deh could control. But most Trinbagonians know deh cant seperate us! Leh dem haul deh.... is one luv

Born in trinidad...born in tobago...as far as i'm concerned there is no difference...is one country. Anybody, especially a foreigner, who trying to make a distinction between the two can kiss my trinbagonian arse.

Besides the Grenadians who are proud that Sparrow
sang his first notes in Grenada, is there ever much mention that he wasn't born in Trinidad? |

Most trinis and sparrow himself regard sparrow as a trini. He may have been born in grenada but he was brought up and cultured in tnt...which is what really counts.

![]() Sparrow was 4 when he moved to Trinidad with his family...dunno how many "first notes" he coulda been singing before that to really count...but it's quite common knowledge that Sparrow was born in Grenada. It's also no secret which culture he more closely identifies with...not that most Trinis (from what I can tell) care...the man's Trini at heart. |

The FACT of the MATTER is, SHADOW was RAISED in TOBAGO. And you can tell from his STYLE and LYRICAL CONTENT that his MUSIC is of a UNIQUE VARIETY.....DIFFERENT from the ARTISTS based in TRINIDAD. Just like the TRINIS love to say SPARROW is a TRINI instead of a GRENADIAN....SHADOW is a TOBAGONIAN....he says it all the time in his MUSIC. As the saying GOES, you cannot have it BOTH ways. SHADOW is a TOBAGONIAN. THE END. |
