What is the jamaican lauguage called?

Seriously, it's not a language. Although some jamaicans will tell you it's patoi (pronounced [pat-wah]). If you look up the definition of patoi, anything outside of standard English is considered patoi. I'm from another Caribbean island where patoi is usually used to describe broken french as it is in most other Caribbean islands. So at the end of the day it's just bad English. The Jamaican language, which some people describe as being more of a dialect of English than a language, is called Patois or Jamaican Creole. It has different linguistic rules and verb conjugations from Standard English and is a combination of several different languages.
