Stonebwoy jabs as Sarkodie, Shatta London linkup
Sarkodie's post comes on the heels of a recent controversy triggered by a tweet from Stonebwoy.
The BHIM Nation boss shared a cryptic statement in which he suggested that some relationships are built on convenience rather than genuine affection.
Stonebwoy claimed that two unnamed individuals had maintained a friendship based on mutual interests and timing, describing it as a "convenient friendship."
He further suggested that such relationships lack sincerity, adding that even the devil would disapprove of people pretending to be close while harbouring different intentions.
His comment, following the link-up between Shatta Wale and Sarkodie at Kweku Smoke's concert in London, many took Stonebwoy's tweet as a shade to his colleagues.
