Media personality Sally Mann shared her mixed feelings about Stonebwoy’s comments regarding Shatta Wale in the lead-up to his highly anticipated Freedom Street concert.
While Mann expressed her unwavering support for Stonebwoy’s musical accomplishments, she did not hold back when discussing what she described as his “unjustified” remarks about his fellow dancehall star during an interview on Angel FM.
Stonebwoy, known for his international success and recognition, particularly in Jamaica, had previously been lauded for his diplomatic approach to the ongoing rivalry with Shatta Wale.
His performances on some of the biggest stages, including those in Jamaica, have made him a respected figure in the global music scene.
However, Mann feels that Stonebwoy crossed a line by addressing Shatta Wale in such a manner, especially considering the typically combative nature of their relationship.
On the popular ShowTyme program on Adom TV, Mann elaborated on her thoughts, pointing out that Stonebwoy’s remarks seemed to alter the public perception of the ongoing conflict between the two artists.
“We know Shatta Wale as the instigator, the one who often pushes things too far, but Stonebwoy’s recent comments have shifted that narrative,” she said, expressing her disappointment with the unexpected turn of events.
Her guests on the show, Kwaku Osei Korankye Asiedu, widely known as KOKA, and Vida Adutwumwaa, echoed her sentiments, criticizing Stonebwoy for taking an uncharacteristic stance.
“We all know Shatta Wale’s behaviour, but Stonebwoy should not have lowered himself to that level,” KOKA remarked during the discussion, highlighting the impact of Stonebwoy’s words on the perception of their rivalry.
