Stonebwoy has made a provocative comment in response to Shatta Wale’s criticism against Nigerian artists.
In a statement made via Twitter on Thursday, December 30th, 2021, Stonebwoy noted that, while Shatta Wale’s speech was not presented properly, he was pointing his fingers in the right direction, concluding that Shatta Wale was correct to condemn Nigerian artists the way he did.
Stonebwoy wrote,

In his statement, Stonebwoy stated that the success the Nigerian music industry enjoys is “due to the strength of its population …”.

“Accordingly, our Nigerian brothers must consider that with great power comes great responsibility of helping to forge a united African front by deliberately allowing music from the other African countries which pollinate Nigerian music to flourish to flourish on Nigerian platforms on local and international level”.
