Stonebwoy's Old Video Surfaces Amid Clash With Shatta Wale: "You're Not On My Level"
- Shatta Wale has issued a challenge for Stonebwoy to meet him in Accra to determine who the King of Dancehall is
- Even though Stonebwoy has not responded to Shatta Wale, fans got an old video of him speaking about an old feud trending
- Bhim Nation fans defended their leader while others spoke about the respective successes of both Ghanaian musicians
After dancehall musician Shatta Wale recently called for a 'showdown' with fellow dancehall musician Stonebwoy, a resurfaced video shows BHIM asserting that he could only clash with someone on his level.
Stonebwoy's old video resurfaces
On August 29, 2024, Shatta Wale took to social media to challenge Stonebwoy to a battle at the Accra Sports Stadium, aiming to settle the ongoing debate over who truly dominates the Ghanaian dancehall scene.
This challenge follows a week of Shatta Wale taunting Stonebwoy over his insistence on being recognised in an article written by the Grammys organisers - the Recording Academy - on pioneers of hiplife in Ghana.
In one of his most recent posts, Shatta Wale challenged the recent GIMPA graduate and his fans to meet him at the Accra Sports Stadium to resolve which one of them was worthy of the title of 'Dancehall King'.
While Stonebwoy has yet to respond directly to this challenge, fans have unearthed a video from his June 2024 interview with Accra-based Asaase Radio.
In the interview, when asked to name an artiste - local or international - he would be willing to battle, Stonebwoy replied that if anyone wanted to clash with him, the only requirement would be for them to be on his level.
The challenge from Shatta Wale has generated significant buzz, with fans of both artists eagerly anticipating Stonebwoy’s response. If accepted, it could set the stage for one of Ghanaian music's most anticipated events.
Meanwhile, Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy have clashed twice: first in 2010 at the Labadi Sound Clash event and again in 2020 at the Asaase Sound Clash.
Reactions to Stonebwoy's old video
Below are the opinions of Ghanaians regarding Stonebwoy's old video, amid the recurring feud between himself and Shatta Wale:
@SilentVoiceofG1 said:
"If Shatta is asking for a challenge then it means he feels insecure or threatened. If u are sure of yourself, why would you want a challenge with someone u claim u are ahead of? And after disrespecting him, why would stone even get close? Seems like shatta wants to trend."
@Lutamann said:
"As simple as it should be! You insult my personality, sabotage my craft, ridicule my "disability" and do even worse things to me, then you expect me to give you my attention by calling for a "clash"??? I'd be very disappointed in @stonebwoy if he agrees to do it!!!"
