The clash between the two heavy weight dancehall acts, Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale.

This clash was organized by the media house to use the rivalry between the two to entertain their fans fans and promote the good works of the two artistes.

Prior to this event the two teased and laughed at each other, both claiming to show the other who is the real deal when it comes to the dancehall genre in Ghana.

Stonebwoy’s arrival at the premises of the event was glorious as fans couldn’t stop hailing his name and cheering him to beat the Shatta Movement boss.

Shatta Wale on the other hand also received same cheers and hails as he walked from his car into the premises. This event despite the late hype has been able to gain the necessary attention and anticipation.

The music video for Beyonce’s Already which featured Ghana’s very own Shatta Wale was released at dawn today.

It is part of Beyonce’s Black is King visual album which serves as a visual companion to her 2019 album The Lion King: The Gift.

Many people have congratulated Shatta Wale on his collaboration with Beyonce, however the people who have gone almost unnoticed are the dancers who were painted green in the video.

These dancers are a part of a group called Dance with a purpose founded by famous Ghanaian dancer Dance god llyod and his friends quables and Afrobeast.

Dance with a purpose have achieved a great feat and deserve to be commended.

The much-anticipated music video of Beyonce’s ‘Already’ which features Ghanaian artiste Shatta Wale is out.

This comes after the announcement of the release of Beyonce’s ‘Black is King’ movie, which is a visual album to her ‘Lion King: the Gift’ music album.

With a few hours to the premiere of the movie, the ‘Already’ video has been published on Beyonce’s official YouTube page.

After last Saturday`s edition of United Showbiz on UTV which was followed by almost all the players in our showbiz space, different commentaries have been generated from the show. Whilst some have praised Stonebwoy for his fluency, others have also criticized him for his position and understanding of the job of artistes managers in our music industry.

One of such people who have come against Stonebwoy on artistes management is Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson aka Bull Dog who happens to be the manager of Africa`s dancehall King Shatta Wale. Obviously after Stonebwoy`s fracas with his former manager Black Sidi, there seems to be a bad blood between the two and it showed in the submission of Stonebwoy yesterday when he was asked to talk about it.

Bull Dog disagrees with some comments he shared and has given a response to the 1GAD on his Facebook timeline. This website www.sammyflextv.com has published it below unedited for your knowledge.

The general disregard to Artiste Management as a profession, on United Showbiz the most watched and talked about TV Talk Show in Ghana hosted by seasoned and award winning actress, Empress Nana Ama McBrown on UTV, Ghana’s leading, most patronised and best-loved award winning television channel by one of Ghana’s top musical exports, Stonebwoy was so unfortunate.

If you have a situation with your management team please don’t generalise it.

To say which artiste manager in Ghana can show a certificate for management was distasteful and unschooled.
Let us learn to respect each other’s contribution in this space.

You were on the moral high ground about ‘disrespect in the game’ kindly heed to your counsel.

I’m not sure it will be appropriate for one to seek for an artiste’s certificate for them to be referred to as or become one.

Talent management is the knowledge or skill obtained from a period of practical experience with talents, especially that gained in a particular profession.

One’s handiwork and attainment in their chosen field makes them a master of their trade and not a certificate in form of a document.

Their unceasing success in their field of work is all the certification they require.

How joyous it would be to ask for a presidential certificate…  

Talent management is a labour of love. Their efforts don’t generate into streams or laurels for themselves so their contribution to the grandiose victory is easily overlooked.

Talent Managers aren’t celebrated in this country because their tale of toil don’t get told.

 Leave Reggie Rockstone alone – Captain Planet to Shatta Wale

Ghanaian musician, Captain Planet has told dancehall artiste Shatta Wale to give honour to whom honour is due.

Making reference to a comment by Shatta Wale that Reggie Rockstone has never made an impact in the music industry, Captain Planet asked the award-winning dancehall artiste to leave the grandpapa alone.

In an interview on GHOne Tv’s Rythmz Live Show with Regina Van Helvert, he made it clear that Reggie Rockstone is the godfather in the music industry and therefore all musicians in Ghana must respect him especially Shatta Wale.

He continues to say that, there are two types of music industry in Ghana and thus, people who are into music and those who are into music business.

Captain Planet explained that there is a difference between the music and the music business.

He indicated that Shatta Wale is talented when it comes to music but he is also into the music business. He added that the SM Boss understands both the ‘SHOW and the BUSINESS’.

According to the former leader of the 4×4 group, there are some musicians in Ghana who do not even know how to make money out of their music as compared to Shatta Wale who is a whole boss in the music business.

Captain Planet said he respects Shatta a lot but for the fact that he disrespects Reggie Rockstone, he (Captain Planet) does not like it so he is appealing to Shatta Wale to leave Reggie Rockstone alone.

He noted that Reggie Rockstone paved way for them to become musicians so he being disrespected is not good.

“Shatta Wale should leave Reggie Rockstone alone”. Captain Planet to Shatta Wale.
