Reggae/Dancehall artiste Stonebwoy says he is not opposed to working with his colleague Shatta Wale on a collaboration.
In the world of Ghanaian music, there are a few names that hold as much weight and influence as Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale.
These two influential persons have influenced the music scene with their infectious beats and powerful lyrics and their rivalry has been the stuff of legends.
In the past, Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale have not seen eye to eye, a situation which led to an almost bloody clash at the 2019 edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.
Speaking in an interview, Stonebwoy said that he truly believes he and Shatta Wale will work together at some point but he does not want them to rush into anything just to please people.
He, however, did not give a reason why a collaboration has not happened after they resolved their differences.
Stonebwoy jokingly opined that the ‘Kakai’ crooner does not invest in shooting quality videos.
He noted:
“So that collaboration nu, we go fight for like one hour before it will happen.
“But you know everything happens with time and I don’t want to sound political. As I sit here, I believe in a clean heart and I know that as powerhouses as the two of us are, we can shake the ground and I hope and pray that it doesn’t become too late or it doesn’t become too early”.
