Waking up a ‘sleeping dog’, Yaa Pono took to Twitter on February 18, 2021, to request a ‘beef’ from the dancehall artiste who is one of his greatest rivals in the industry.
In the said tweet, he suggested to Shatta that the showbiz industry is quite slow thus he would love to engage in a lyrical beef with him just for the fun of it.
“Shatta Wale the system make quiet, make I shake you small?” he wrote
Shatta who seemed irritated by the Uptown Energy boss’s post replied saying:
“Hwe no jon. We won’t give any more hype to underground artistes anymore. Go look for Patapaa dems,”
For reasons best known to himself, Shatta deleted the tweet shortly after posting it.
Yaa Pono after observing Shatta’s timeline and noticing that his tweet no longer existed attacked the dancehall artiste and labelled him a coward.
Also, to tackle Shatta’s claim that he (Yaa Pono) is an underground artiste, he ridiculed the dancehall artist saying that before his fame, he remained underground for 19 years.
“Tweet am again. Double jon. Wat I tweet wasn’t an insult. 4ple jon,, u have the longest underground roll in Ghana history 19 years minus my 6 years go fit born tutulapato.. #gbee,, me di agro wo be gyimi,” he wrote
Meanwhile, some social media users are of the view that the ‘Amen’ hitmaker is seeking attention to resurrecting his ‘limping career’ by riding on the popularity of Shatta Wale through a staged beef.
