Ghanaian reggae/dancehall artist Stonebwoy has addressed the recent incident involving the cancellation of Shatta’s scheduled performance at the University of Ghana (UG) campus concert.
The event, part of the university’s hall week festivities, sparked controversy as both Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy were slated to perform on the same evening.
The two musicians have a contentious history, especially after their altercation at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA), which resulted in both being banned from the event.
When Shatta Wale’s performance was unexpectedly canceled while Stonebwoy’s show went on, Shatta Wale vented his frustration on social media, using offensive language aimed at Stonebwoy and his family.
Stonebwoy responded to the situation in an interview on Asaase radio, expressing his disbelief at Shatta Wale’s allegations.
“It’s ridiculous for my brother to make such accusations. It implies I have more power than I do. I am not an event organizer,” Stonebwoy stated.
He further mentioned that although he anticipated such a reaction from Shatta Wale, it was still disappointing.
“I am not surprised that the rants were aimed at me; it’s expected behavior from my brother. I believe an apology is owed to me, but I don’t expect to receive one,” Stonebwoy said.
