Look up "code switching". Happens whenever cultures intersect - either through immigration or exposure to other cultures and languages. It's particularly prevalent in the UK's Jamaican diaspora, where those from the Island were educated in standard English. Subsequent generations were (obviously) immersed in English, but spoke a lot of patois at home. Over time this made a significant contribution to MLE (Multicultural London English), which people of all races use. If you look at the old Grime vids of MdotR, he's clearly using early MLE, and this would have provided a basic linguistic platform for his interest in Jamaican culture and language. So no, not ridiculous at all.

Maybe his whole life he's hung out with Jamaican people. Also, there's a lot of white people in Jamaica. Grow up.

You do know Bob Marley didn't even do reggae music until he came to England and he didn't have dreads and he didn't smoke weed.
