“… he would want to stay relevant in the system because we all know that he is one of the Artistes who made it onto the scene hugely by propaganda and then all sort of negative influence. For a guy like him, I don’t blame him, he will continue to be smart to feed that ego so that he keeps relevant,” Stonebwoy answered when he was asked what his take on the Shatta Wale video which indirectly attacked him for ‘stealing’ his boy’s music (Baafira).

Throughout last week, a video by the Artiste of the year, Shatta Wale addressing the issue of an Artiste using his friend Rashid Metal’s ‘Baafira’ song title trended on social media. Shatta Wale who undeniably pilloried Stonebwoy said he only recognizes Rashid Metal’s ‘Baafira’ and no one else’s. As if he is the GHAMRO or Copyright Boss to verify who deserves to own which song, Shatta Wale said “me the Baafira Baafira make nobody try take the title cos e be Rashi Metal wey I dey hear from am. The boy be my youth, straight from Tankase line so make nobody try like he wan use the Baafira; make we give people chance make den do dema thing. I hear say some Artiste wan claim he bring the Baafira, herh herh if you bring your Baafira come, herh, herh, herh, don’t do that e be wanna language.”

In a sharp response to the video when queried by Eboo, the host of Empire FM’s ‘Green lounge,’ Stonebwoy posited that, “… exactly, he is referring to me but cowardly enough he hasn’t still mentioned my name so why would I take it personal you understand? If you are starting the fight and you want to really refer to somebody and you are brave, yo, you just have to say my guy this is to you. Although indirectly he is referring to me, I’m supposed to be wise because I don’t find my name in there. He is just trying to be smart to create wave to feed the original image he has brought on himself. It is no news to Ghana that Shatta is that kind of Artiste who has some kind of negative around him. I was even him, I wouldn’t have any option than to keep feeding that kind of ego; Stonebwoy is known for good music that is why I came on the scene not because I insulted anybody or started beefing so the masses respect me for the fact that if they want good music and intelligent music, they can always turn to Stonebwoy.”

Per what www.233times.net gathered from the interview, Stonebwoy does not have any beef with Shatta Wale and would not in any way reply the balderdash. “This is music, I think we don’t want to fight, if he wants to fight I think he should go and see the army” Stonebwoy advised.

“I think he has not gotten to that extreme that he require my reply but if he tries, ah ah ah ah, me and Ashaiman we will not wait for one second” Stonebwoy threatened.

Green Lounge hosted by Kwabena Adisi alias Eboo airs on Empire 102.7 FM (Takoradi) every Saturday 1 – 4 PM.
