These days we take it for granted that Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale are supposed to always be at each other’s throats. The two have been beefing for so long that we don’t remember a time when that was not how they related to each other.
However, everything has a beginning and the Stonebwoy-Shatta beef can definitely be traced back to one tv interview in 2013.
Stonebwoy has strongly disputed the assertion that Shatta Wale can be considered the ‘king’ of anything, much less dancehall, after some recent antics from Wale.
According to Stonebwoy, ‘Gbee Naabu’ is nothing but a song thief who has been ‘lifting’ songs from other artists which he passes off as his own.
Shatta Wale has once again done what he always does best, which is to create controversy out of nothing and get himself trending on every major platform around the country.
The ‘dancehall king’ during his performance in the U.K, called Ghana a village and tried to get his fans to go along and also dub Ghana a village, although most of them were uncomfortable with shouting that out loud.
Once upon a time highlife music was king in Ghana, in fact for a long time it was the only game in town and Ghana produced some of the best highlife singers ever.
As time went on more and more genres were either invented or imported, with hiplife and reggae/dancehall being the two most prominent ones.
Ghanaian rapper, Denning Edem Hotor known in Showbiz as Edem has bragged that no Ghanaian rapper can rub shoulders with him when it comes to music and talent.
Rapper Edem explaining to the question on his versatility posed by Radio Central’s Amansan Krakye said;
Former Ghana BBA house rep and celebrity ‘tailor’, Elikem Kumordzi, has waded into the entire Stonebwoy-Shatta Wale BET awards brouhaha and what he has to say is sure to piss off the massive SM4LYF followers.
Speaking on GhOne Tv’s Celebrity Fanzone, Elikem tore into Shatta Wale for his reaction to not being nominated.
Rex Omar is being quite generous here in declaring Shatta ‘highlife king’, because if you listen to him carefully, he’s actually the ‘jama king’.
But then, who am we to disagree with Rex Omar?
We have a self proclaimed ‘dancehall king’ in Ghana but it looks a lot like that owner of that crown is certainly not a settled issue.
Stonebwoy, who has been making waves recently with a trip to Jamaica, has once again roared defiantly, confidently telling Jamaicans and the entire world that he runs the dancehall game in Ghana.
Shatta Wale seems to be the ripest target around right now, with shots coming at him from all angles.
Ever since Okraku Mantey said Shatta is not composing dancehall songs to be calling himself the ‘dancehall king’ – the crown of the self proclaimed king has come under threat.
Dancehall act Ebony Reigns marked a birthday on Thursday, a birthday she decided to celebrate by releasing a topless photo which was certainly a cry for attention. (SEE PHOTO HERE).
One person who can’t seem to get enough of Reigns, birthname Priscilla Opoku Kwarteng, is veteran radio presenter Abeiku Santana.
Mark Okraku Mantey continues to serve up truth bombs – this time, he’s saying prominent dancehall stars we have aren’t really doing dancehall.
Speaking on Starr Fm Wednesday, Mark said big names like Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy aren’t really doing ‘dancehall’ despite they classifying themselves as such.
