Share the post "Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy cause confusion on Twitter after Charterhouse jab"
The two dancehall giants have stoked heated conversation on social media platform Twitter, leading the trends, after launching attacks on Charterhouse for urging the media to rise above them and celebrate other artistes.
In the midst of suggestions that the indefinite ban placed on them for disrupting last year’s Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMAs) should be lifted, Theresah Ayoada, Chief Executive Officer of Charterhouse – organisers of the event – said the fate of Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy will be determined by the newly constituted board.
She made the comments at a press engagement in Accra and underscored the need to rather focus on other artistes.
“Can you as the media help the industry rise above these two? Let’s rise above these two and let the industry breathe and move on,” she appealed. “Sarkodie won artiste of the decade and nobody even talked about it. The industry is bigger than these two artistes and that what I what I want you to go back with. There are a lots of young people who need the opportunity so let’s move on.”
On Wednesday, Shatta Wale took a swipe at Charterhouse and the VGMAs board over the entrenched position.
“You guys don’t think, you are fools,” he said to Charterhouse in a Facebook live feed.
“The Board members, all of you are poor people. What I possess, none of you has, I can pay all of you every month,” he fired. “You don’t have anything. Most of them are disappointed musicians. You don’t know God… Don’t try me. This should be your first and last. Don’t try me. You can try this on Stonebwoy but not me.”

Stonebwoy who had earlier said he wished his ban would be extended so it serves as a deterrent to other artistes, armed himself for battle, Thursday. He described as disappointing the call on journalists to rise above him and Shatta Wale.
“May I conclude that Charterhouse does not have the interest of Ghanaian musicians and Ghana music at heart. With all due respect #MrsTeresa I’m disappointed!! Calling on Ghana media to help you quench our careers is a very low blow,” his tweet read.
Their reactions have courted controversy with tweeps sharing dissenting views. Here are a few:
Yea, but stonebwoy should forget about this and focus on his upcoming album, tours and others bro. It pains me that he’s trending but it’s not about the album, tours etc. Please, please people closer to him should alert him.

Then they should also stop talking about him if they don’t want his career to move on bro, we know he has an agenda to push but she have no right to say we should move on without them, this is shit!!

You didn’t get the angle I’m coming from. Stonebwoy has already reacted to Mrs. Ayoade’s comments after his press conference last week. So it’s OK, move on. Now he tweets again abt it days after. Like how? Is VGMA dah important more than his plans for the year? That’s my worry.510:32 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee OpuroSinAprɔ 7th Feb’s other Tweets

Menua @Greatman__ , I think you forgotten something lemme cast your mind back small. Shatta wale and Sarkodie boycotted the Vgma at 2014. From there they organized their own concert at Korkor-Gono. And still VGMA,s capacity was full to the brim.
So that you’re suggesting will not in any way have any effect on the VGMA award.
Whether Stonebwoy or Shatta wale. The award will still go on. So try to come out with something different menua.510:27 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee Kwadwo Anane ‘s other Tweets
How I wish Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy will organise a show on the day they will do the VGMA just to show charter house something small.510:22 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee Jacob Baah’s other Tweets

“Everywhere talking about it” ?
He was asked a question concerning it n he did answer sincerely…Naa wait oo, why is that when it comes to Stonebwoy he needs to shut up.ah I don’t understand. Is not like he addressing these tins too affects him negatively too.
I never said he should keep quiet but there is time for everything that’s what the person wrote before you even comment. When is time to deal with vgma then he will voice things out. Stop making it look like I’m against stonebwoy. He should concentrate more on his craft10:21 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee NimaBwoy’s other Tweets

Stonebwoy always wanna look clean in the hearts of Ghanaians but this time round u are wrong. I love your music and all that but what you have to do is to apologize to the people that were present at the show and those that was watching on TV that yall caused a mess!@stonebwoyb910:19 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee Eden Nana Godfred’s other Tweets
I think Shata and Stonebwoy are being treated unfairly, they are been made the protagonist of the Music Industry and I really understand why they reacted this way. I think they’ve taken Ghana music to another level and for that they deserve respect. @zylofon1021fm #Showbizagenda29:51 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee Francis Diatta’s other Tweets
You can’t spit on the ground and take it back.
Shatta Wale sometime ago said he doesn’t need any VGMA but later on joined it.
Came back and misbehaved at the same award.
Today he’s telling us that he’s not interested in the same award
The irony

You see how stonebowy and Shatta Wale dey speak their mind,but then we have taken it lightly but the question is, if it were to be upcoming artists aaa, would we have taken it the same way. We would’ve tagged them as disrespectful, ungrateful, etc.

Return all your awards given to you over the years to them since now you know how they’ve tried in many years to destroy careers of some musicians including @shattawalegh which benefited you to the extent that you even pulled out a gun at a live event.

The hypocrisy in this industry, I have monitored most of your interviews and you have made it clear that the ban hasn’t affected you in anyway, why are you all of a sudden letting it look so….that institution has helped you greatly, admit and move on16:23 PM – Feb 12, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacySee Amoako’s other Tweets
