Shatta Wale, Sarkodie beef brings excitement into Ghanaian music – DopeNation

Ghanaian musical duo DopeNation have said they are happy when
Ghanaian artistes engage in brawls or beefs with each other
because they find it healthy for the showbiz industry in Ghana.
The duo were speaking in an interview on the Class Drive on
Class91.3FM, Tuesday, 16 October 2018, following recent reports
about brawls between dancehall artiste Shatta Wale and rapper
Sarkodie.
According to DopeNation, when they see artistes beefing, it makes
them happy because it brings Ghanaian music alive.
B2 told show host Prince Benjamin that: “It’s high time Ghana got
to understand showbiz; I wouldn’t say I’m encouraging conflict,
but it’s high time we got to understand how showbiz is. Sakordie,
Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy; these people have gotten to understand
that feeding fans with our personal lifestyle and then what we feel
about another artistes is more; instead of giving them the music
they want to make you feel what’s in them, if you look at
Sakordie’s career, Sakordie’s career has been giving fans different
tastes of how showbiz is like, it’s making Ghana music go alive.
“I wouldn’t have known that Shatta Wale’s album was number one
on iTunes in different countries in less than twenty-four hours if it
wasn’t for this beef that was going on, it’s made Ghanaians more
interested about music.
“For me, it encourages me the more, it’s making me know Sakordie
can pull this number when he’s having his concert, Shatta Wale
can pull this number.”

Twist added: “All of the stuff that happened before the concert
contributed to the number of people going for the concert. If they
say Sakordie doesn’t brag, but Shatta Wale brags a lot about his
riches, the way he brags motivates, it inspires people out there like
someone who lives in his small single room who drinks tea in the
evening, bread and egg in the evening, will be motivated Shatta
Wale was once here and he has the G-Wagon and he has this now,
so, it’s a source of motivation. Sakordie also brags with his career,
too, and where he has taken Ghana music to. We are happy that
they are beefing, it all adds up.”
