The BHIM Nation leader recently courted controversy for making controversial statements and allegations against his rival Shatta Wale during an interview on Angel FM before his performance at the Legacy Nite show at the Miklin Hotel in Kumasi.

During the interview, Stonebwoy threw shade at Shatta Wale over his appearance at Vybz Kartel's Freedom Street concert in Jamaica on December 31, 2024.

KOKA criticises Stonebwoy for his rants

In a recent conversation with media personality Sally Mann on her Showtym show, KOKA questioned Stonebwoy's motive for his recent rants.

The controversial entertainment pundit, who was involved in a legal tussle with gospel musician Ohemaa Mercy several months ago, said Stonebwoy's recent actions negatively impacted his artistry.

According to KOKA, the Burninton Music Group CEO had slowly morphed into a commentator instead of a prominent musician with a big brand.

He said:

"There was a time Stonebwoy did not perform his old songs because he was focused on brand affirmation and positioning. I do not know what the new arrangement is, but the new arrangement is taking his artistry and bringing more of a commentator to me."

The controversial entertainment pundit noted that it was needless for Stonebwoy to hold his infamous interview as it added no value or publicity to the Legacy Nite show at the Miklin Hotel in Kumasi.

KOKA added that Stonebwoy's interview created the perception that he wanted to return to his past life as a "ghetto boy" instead of a reputable and accomplished artiste.

Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh on KOKA's criticisms of Stonebwoy

In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, entertainment pundit Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh shared his thoughts on KOKA's criticisms against Stonebwoy.

He said:

"KOKA’s comments are unfortunate because just being a musician does not stop you from also being a commentator. Stonebwoy shared stuff that he felt bothered him. You might not agree but to try and gag him because he sings isn’t the right thing to do. Stonebwoy is entitled to speak on things that especially affect his art."

KOKA's criticisms of Stonebwoy's rants stir reactions

KOKA's remarks about Stonebwoy's recent interview triggered mixed reactions from numerous fans on social media. YEN.com.gh has gathered some comments below:

@Nfoni_Gh said:

"Hahaha, he thinks he has made a valid point. Let him tell that to Sarkodie. Every artiste needs to be a commentator as well, but their commentating has to stir up controversy. We don’t do a lot in Ghana, though."

@lmdzarto commented:

"True, look, we all know Stonebwoy is more talented, and his music has quality lyrics than Shatta Wale, but he is letting fame get to his head too much. Longevity in his field happens when all ages still rock with you."

@Emmanue69922657 said:

"Shatta has been doing more commentary than viral music nowadays than Stonebwoy 😂."

@itsm3ttle commented:

"It is very cringe to watch him now. Some of us are not surprised."
