Artiste of the Year for the 25th TGMA, Stonebwoy has denied any involvement in the cancellation of Shatta Wale’s performance at the Wave Africa Artiste Night on Legon campus over the weekend.
Both artists were billed to perform at the University of Ghana Campus on June 8, Stonebwoy was scheduled for the Limann Hall karaoke night while Shatta Wale was billed to perform at the JT Nelson Yankah Hall artiste night.
However, hours after the JT Nelson Yankah Hall concert, organisers of the show received an ‘order from above’ refraining Shatta Wale from performing at the artiste night.
On the other hand, Stonebwoy was able to proceed with his performance without any interruption.
Due to the rivalry between the two artists, speculations and rumours were rife that Stonebwoy had ‘use his connections to prominent personalities and authorities’ to prevent Shatta Wale from performing at the artiste night.
However, speaking on the matter since it emerged, Stonebwoy in an interview on Asaase Radio refuted the speculations concerning his involvement in the matter.
He said “it’s ridiculous” for some people to think he orchestrated what had happened.
The eight-time Reggae Dancehall Artiste of the Year emphasised that “even if he had such powers, he cannot abuse it like that.”
“I had nothing at all to do with it. So, I am surprised where the accusations is coming from,” Stonebwoy said during his interview on June 12.
