Ghana’s music scene has been on fire ever since Black Sherif dropped Where Dem Boyz, a track many believe is a direct shot at certain figures in the industry.
While fans speculated that the song was aimed at Shatta Wale, the dancehall king himself has finally broken his silence—and in true Shatta fashion, his response has left the streets talking.
Taking to his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, Shatta Wale seemed unbothered by the ongoing drama. Instead of lashing out, he congratulated Black Sherif on his “masterpiece,” encouraging him to keep pushing.
But the real spice in his response? He called out “unemployed Ghanaians” for trying to push an agenda, dismissing any claims that the song was about him.
Shatta Wale’s “Too Bank-Minded” for the Drama?
Shatta Wale is no stranger to controversy, but this time, he seems to be playing the role of the wise big brother.
Earlier, on a tweet was trending about Sheriff latest song “Where Dem Boyz” where he dropped some jabs, but it was not clear if the jabs were pointing to Shatta. From previous tweets all eyes were on Shatta.
Shatta made it clear that he never heard his name mentioned in the song, so as far as he’s concerned, it’s all fan made drama. His response filled with humor and subtle jabs suggests that he’s focused on his business rather than industry squabbles.
However, fans are not letting go of the speculation. While some praised Shatta for his mature approach, others saw his response as a subtle way of downplaying Black Sherif’s message.
Shatta even posted an image alongside his response, further fueling discussions about what he truly meant.
Fans react: divided over Blacko, Shatta, and Stonebwoy
Shatta’s post ignited another wave of reactions, not just about Where Dem Boyz but also about industry unity.
Some fans pointed out that Black Sherif didn’t promote Stonebwoy’s Up & Running album, raising questions about loyalty in the industry.
“Have you seen Blacko sharing Stonebwoy’s album? Let’s put an end to this sense of entitlement. Stone doesn’t owe anyone anything,” one fan tweeted.
Others, however, dismissed the argument, saying the focus should be on the music rather than forcing unnecessary alliances.
What should we expect next in the Ghanaian music drama?
With Shatta Wale’s response now out in the open, all eyes are on Black Sherif. Will he respond, or will he let his music do the talking? And what about Stonebwoy will he address the conversation around industry support?
One thing is for sure: Ghanaian music fans are eating well this season. Whether it’s beef, subliminals, or just straight-up great music, the game is alive and thriving.
