Most of the times we hear people say that our artistes are not United and we disregard . 

That line has come up so many times that it is gradually becoming a popular sentence in our music space. 

The call for unity among Ghanaian artistes has come from all angles, Fans, Media, executive producers and even investors. 

Some times as a patriotic Ghanaian, we defend our artistes by saying they are United and lack of unity is every where in the world but for some strange reason, that comment of our artistes are not together might just be true. 

Ghanaian artistes are not United and they don’t love each other. 

The act to do it first and block others from attaining the same feet is what is driving our music business into the gutters. 

It took only one Nigerian win at the Grammys to expose our music industry. Burna Boy and wiz kid winning a Grammy has brought up so many conversations in our space that we thought never existed. 

So apparently Samini is keeping a certain pain for Stonebwoy all these years and no one knew? 

Also, apparently, Ghanaians as a whole have been waiting to mock our own stars for not winning a a Grammy? Something we do often at the least chance we get.

Finally,  our artistes have their own meaning of what is called music success and we didn’t know? 

Why am I raising all these points, I am doing so because I was expecting that as as Ghanaians we will congratulate our own artistes who have gone so close to winning a Grammy, like Shatta Wale. 

Instead of us to see the pride in the fact that our own got close, we however decided to use the opportunity to mock and call them names. 

I have said it often times that if we don’t cancel this fanaticism thing in Ghana, a lot of hard work will go un-noticed. 

Recently Epixode was featured on a top rated world album which went number 1 on Amazon music but it had no talk-ability. Also Stonebwoy got to work with Sean Paul for the second time and he has done so many works with other Grammy winning artistes yet we hardly praise such achievements. 

This is how the world will begin to see us now. It took only one Grammy award for us as Ghanaians to wash our dirty clothes in public. 

Let’s us continue to dirty ourselves in public (not to say that others don’t do it ) and forget that as we waste time to mock each other, the rest of the world will be looking for new opportunities. 

Once again let me say that A Grammy is not far away from any Ghanaian artist. 

It seems Samini is fueling fresh beef with Stonebwoy after he congratulated Wizkid and Burna Boy for winning big at the 63rd Grammy held last night. 

In a twitter post sighted by oneplayafrica, Stonebwoy congratulated Wizkid and Burna Boy that with all due respect let’s all other African Nations give it up for Nigeria for their constant efforts in holding the mantle for Africa when it comes to entertainment on the global scene. 

Some few minutes after, Samini fired back with a tweet below which didn’t go down well with Stonebwoy. 

Stonebwoy also replied in a new tweet that, no disrespect to him but he just finished a twitter beef with Shatta so is it his turn now, he questioned. His tweet below: 

Today on Oneplay Africa Daily Zoom, NYB from Muse Africa and Roland Amartey from Event Guide have reacted to Shatta Wale-Samini beef score. 

According to NYB, Samini is still in the game having fun but the attention has sued away from him especially when Yaa Pono dropped his record and the Kumerica boys coming in. For him, the excitement is not there again but he will probably choose Shatta Wale over Samini. 

Roland on the other hand said money in this conversation is not the option but its about who is supreme because this will go along way to cement Shatta Wale’s claim that he is better than Samini. Please watch the video below.

Ever since the new year, 2021, it seems the Ghanaian entertainment industry has seen countless misunderstands. Currently is the Shatta Wale and Samini beef which seem to have been revived after a decade or so.

Besides the twitter trends, social media excitement, and the vibrancy these beef have created in the Ghanaian entertainment and media space, are the artists involved cashing any benefits from these back and forth?

Speaking on Zylofon Showbiz Agenda, the Lead Director Oneplay Networks, Nana Yaw Wiredu, said assertively that, these artists involved are milking the beef as well as content creators. 

To him, the boost or increase in the numbers and eyeballs of these artistes involved in beef can be translated into money or directed to their money making ventures or main projects that have not garnered the attention as they want. Citing and example with teephlow and Medikal beef and his Phlowducation project.

To him any content creator or regular social media user who commented on these beefs one way or the other got some increase in views, page clicks or more followers from these beef.

This is why he is certain artists involved made money off the beef.
