On Tuesday, October 31, 2023, it was confirmed that Shatta Wale's highly anticipated concert had been cancelled. In response to this development, Shatta Wale's manager, Sammy Baah Flex, issued a press release.

The statement attributed the cancellation to the promoter's inability to meet Shatta Wale's extravagant demands. It also noted that Shatta Wale's years of hard work and dedication had earned him the right to such requirements.

However, Edem, not one to shy away from expressing his opinions, took issue with the statement. In a tweet, the rapper criticised Sammy Baah Flex's words, suggesting that the press release was causing more harm than good.

The core of Edem's criticism was aimed at what he perceived as unnecessary remarks in the press release. According to him, emphasising Shatta Wale's extravagant demands did not reflect well on the artiste. Many Ghanaians joined Edem in this sentiment, believing that such comments may not be in the best interest of Shatta Wale.
