Controversial rapper, Kwame A Plus, has lauded Yaa Pono for responding accurately to the self-proclaimed Dancehall King, Shata Wale, in a song titled: ‘Gbe Naabu.’
Just a few moments after the dancehall king released a vulgar song to defeat him in an on-going rap feud.
The ‘beef’ between Yaa Pono and Shatta Wale began when the former was prevented from performing at a show at the Cape Coast Stadium where Shatta Wale was the headline act.
Yaa Pono later suggested in the media he was not allowed to come on stage because he would have stolen Shatta Wale’s shine.
Manager of Shatta Wale, Julio Olympio, in a Facebook post suggested that Yaa Pono peddled untruth.
“… Shatta has made it a point to suggest Yaa Pono anytime event organisers ask which act he wants on his platform so why this unnecessary rants…when clearly it’s either your road manager isn’t working with time? Or rather direct your rants to the producers of the event…Same thing happened in Abetifi…Unnecessary, Unnecessary, Unnecessary hype ….” the post read.
Yaa Pono, shortly after the post, took to Instagram and challenged anyone to disrespect him in a live video or say “fi.”
Eventually, Monday, through a Facebook live post, Shata Wale managed to say ‘Fi’ through a song titled ‘Say Fi’ to literally counter Pono’s claim of being Ghana’s most loved lyricists.
But the Uptown Energy front-liner, Yaa Pono, well known for his word play, brought the heat back to the game with his fired up song “Gbe Naabu’ which he released as a response to Shatta Wale’s ‘Say Fi.’
