Accra: Ghanaian dancehall star Stonebwoy has responded to critics who accused him of copying another artiste simply for hosting a TikTok Live session. During the livestream, the award-winning musician dismissed the claims, arguing that the live feature is available to everyone and cannot be owned by a single person.
According to Ghana Web, Stonebwoy questioned the rationale behind the accusations, suggesting that the ability to go live on TikTok is a universal feature meant for all users. He humorously compared the situation to owning a phone, saying, “So because I am live they say I’m copying? Was a phone manufactured for just one person? So I can’t come on live? When I come on live, I have copied? It’s not my fault; the live option is on my phone.” He challenged those making the accusations to remove the feature from his phone if they believed he should not use it.
Stonebwoy further addressed the critics by emphasizing that he is not intimidated by their comments. He stated, “Then come and take it away. After you remove it, I will know I’m not eligible to go live. Do you think we are scared of your talks? If you can’t watch me, leave. If you’re watching too, feel it.”
The Jejereje hitmaker also pointed out that some social media users provoke him to attract attention and create unnecessary controversy. He mentioned that these individuals often aim to tarnish his image rather than engage in constructive dialogue. “They are also the same people here oo. They just want a reaction, so them go poke you. Everything will be fine still. They don’t have a job; they just want to tarnish your image. I’ve been telling you guys, hate is a punishment from the devil,” he expressed in a mix of English and pidgin.
