Former Black Stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, was at an event where dancehall artiste Stonebwoy performed and got many people in the auditorium on their feet.

This year's Ghana Sports Writers Association (SWAG) Awards took place at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) on Saturday, November 14, 2025.

In a Facebook video, when Stonebwoy mounted the stage to perform, Asamoah Gyan sat down quietly and did not even nod to the music.

Baby Jet, as he is often called, appeared to look away so he would not see the performance.

Sitting close to Baby Jet was his elder brother, Baffour Gyan, who, although he had turned his head towards Stonebwoy, did not seem to be enjoying the performance.

The Gyan brothers both had straight faces, while others seated near them - including football legend Anthony Baffoe - at least smiled or nodded to show their appreciation for the musician.

Asamoah Gyan and Stonebwoy's fallout

Several people were surprised by the tension between Stonebwoy and Asamoah Gyan, considering how close the two once were.

In 2023, the musician expressed appreciation to the footballer for fully paying for the cost of his leg surgery in Germany back in 2016.

“Time flies, but I can never forget,” he shared in a heartfelt post at the time.

Asamoah Gyan responded that he was happy he could help when Stonebwoy needed it most.

Then, in 2018, the two worked together on a track titled Dirty Enemies.

However, Gyan has yet to publicly explain why he reportedly cut ties with Stonebwoy.
