The Ghanaian Afropop artiste ran into Taylor Swift at the 2023 Grammy Awards. A video of them locked in a brief conversation threw the internet into a frenzy.
While fans were intrigued that Stonebwoy had gone an inch closer to his dream of working with the global popstar, others tore into him for selling himself too little when he met her.
During his media engagement on Hitz FM, a pundit commented on fans' unfair treatment after Stonebwoy's meetup with Taylor Swift.
The Jejereje hitmaker drooled over the moment, saying
"Those comments are opposition comments. Just like NPP and NDC. Sometimes I see it lightly but It doesn't stop me from doing what I got to do."
He established that meeting her was a pivotal moment and brushed off the narrative that his attitude during their meetup was demeaning.
"Our handshake alone is bigger than some careers. I know what I said to her, and she knows what she said to me."
