Stonebwoy Warns Team: ‘I Will Wound Anyone Who Takes Bribes from Shatta Wale’
Ghanaian dancehall sensation Stonebwoy has issued a public warning to his team members, threatening physical harm to anyone who accepts bribes from his rival Shatta Wale’s camp. The “Jejereje” hitmaker’s comments, captured in a viral video on July 5, 2026, have ignited a fresh wave of debate across the Ghanaian entertainment landscape.
Stonebwoy’s warning was specific and intense. He addressed the possibility of his team being compromised by the Shatta Movement (SM) to sabotage his live performances, such as by intentionally turning off his microphone. He made it clear that such a betrayal would be met with immediate and severe consequences.
“If you go and collect a bribe from SM and turn off my microphone, I will wound him. He can’t do that,” Stonebwoy asserted, emphasizing the sanctity of his stage craft and the loyalty he expects from his inner circle.
The video also featured Stonebwoy dismissing any chance of sharing a stage with Shatta Wale. He used a football metaphor to illustrate the gap he perceives between their current career levels, claiming that while he is competing on a global stage, his rival has failed to keep up.
“It won’t work. He’s not good enough. We are playing in the World Cup, and he didn’t qualify,” he added, a comment that has since been widely shared and debated by fans of both artistes.
This latest development underscores Stonebwoy’s commitment to maintaining the highest standards for his brand and performances. By making this warning public, he is not only addressing his team but also sending a message to his rivals that he is fully aware of potential sabotage and is prepared to defend his territory.
As the music industry reacts to these strong words, the rivalry between Bhim Nation and Shatta Movement continues to be one of the most compelling and high-stakes stories in African music today.
“SM is not qualified to do a show with me. If anyone on my team takes a bribe from Shatta Wale (SM) and turns off my microphone during a show, I’ll wound them.”
