Charles Nii Armah Mensah, popularly known as Shatta Wale, has returned to take aim at Livingstone Etse Satekla, also known as Stonebwoy, and some Ghanaians who have been disparaging him.
Shatta Wale asserts that many in Ghana back Stonebwoy without realizing how lethal the man is behind closed doors.
Many may relate to Stonebwoy because of his impairment, he claims, yet Stonebwoy accomplishes feats that even those without disabilities are unable to.
The artist told the story of how Stonebwoy, who many mistake for a handicapped person, once drew a pistol on him during a disagreement.
In terms of both age and skill, Stonebwoy is not comparable to the self-proclaimed African dancehall king.
Surprisingly, Stonebwoy was unable to be discovered when he was 14 years old and stealing cars, according to Shatta Wale.

“Don’t Be The Same Lady To Your Husband All The Time” – Bisa Kdei Tells Married Women
Popular Ghanaian artist Bisa Kdei has stated that, particularly after committing to a marriage, he does not believe males should have extramarital affairs.
The singer stated that he has no intention of cheating on his wife and is ready to stay with her till death do them part. He declared that he could satisfy his sexual cravings with his wife.
He stressed that in order to protect themselves from being exposed to infidelity, married women must dress in a way that appeals to their husbands and satisfies them sexually.
“Can you stay faithful to your wife for the rest of your life?” was the question posed to the artist during an interview with Accra FM's Nana Romeo.
“Why not?” was Bisa's subsequent reply. That's something I can and will do—not cheat on his wife. Although polygamy was popular in the past, things altered as a result of civilization. It's expected that two people will marry. According to this idea, a woman should constantly look attractive and wear nice clothes for her spouse.
“After marriage, there's no reason for a woman to feel insecure; she should do everything in the bedroom to please her husband.”
Bisa Kdei went on to say that women's attitudes might occasionally play a role in why their spouses choose to have extramarital relationships.
“The way that the women respond to issues when they emerge sometimes makes them complicit in infidelity. You are to blame if you make your boyfriend feel uncomfortable and he goes off to have an affair.

“Any President Who Tries To Fix Corruption Will Die In Two Weeks” – Okyeame Kwame
Ghana's issues may be solved by the next generation, according to popular rapper Kwame Nsiah-Apau, best known by his stage name Okyeame Kwame.
Ghana's issues may be solved by changing the way the next generation thinks, Okyeame Kwame revealed in a recent interview.
He made the observation that the number of dishonest people in the country would make any president who tried to turn things around want to die.
Families are the ones that can aid Ghana; the NDC and NPP cannot. The issue plaguing our nation is psychological in nature.
“Many individuals are wealthy and content, but the corrupt system cannot be fixed by itself. If a president wants to visit the nation and combat corruption at this time, he will be dead.”
“It's about morality; it's not about money or pay,” he declared.
He said that teaching the next generation of Ghanaians to be impervious to corruption would be the best way to address the problem of corruption.
“The politician is a representation of you and me; if they are corrupt, it indicates that you are corrupt as well. They were elected by us.”
“It's true that politicians are a problem, but as you battle the system, teach your kids not to think like policymakers.
“In order for our children to grow up and overthrow this corrupt system, my goal is that we teach them to be incorruptible. That is the only direction I see for Ghana's development.”
