In Mavado's song " Touch Di Road " what's a sprat ?

Question

I'm listening to Mavado - Touch Di Road , and he says :

" Him fada is a fish so mi know seh is a sprat dat. "

Is that another word for batty bwoy or is he just rhyming ? Cause I know some deejays rhyme and make up words.

Answer 1

His father is a fish (meaning battybwoy) and so the son is a sprat (smaller fish).

Fish is another 'slang' word for homosexual in Jamaica.

Sprat is a type of small freshwater fish that has been popular as a traditional snack in some parts of Jamaica for over 50 years. SPRAT is not a word typically used to mean homosexual in Jamaica.

Answer 2

So how does a "g*y father" wind up with a son ???

Just askin .

Answer 5

Answer 6

in Jamaica right now if you call someone or is being called a "fish" or "sprat" that means that you're g*y....so im guessing he's sayin that the father is g*y....
