Sammy Forson bashed Yaw Tog saying:
Yaw Tog's comments about making Stomzy popular in GH are the kind that unfortunately encourage selfish behaviour in the industry.. If u know what it takes to be a mainstream artist in the UK and play listed into other parts of europe, u won't loose talk.. Smh.. Focus on ur music
Joey B quickly sprang to Yaw Tog's defence indicating that:
