Stonebwoy’s manager, Chief Stylz, has addressed recent controversies surrounding the dancehall artiste’s upcoming concert in the UK, clarifying that there was no intention to clash with any other event.

Speaking on the issue, Chief Stylz explained that Stonebwoy’s team announced their show date as far back as October.

However, in January, their business manager in London informed them that Akwaaba UK had raised concerns about their event because they were also planning a show on the same date.

“This year’s Independence weekend is a long one, and every Independence Day is also Stonebwoy’s birthday. Usually, we would be in America, but this time he decided to take it to the UK because, at that time, there was no announcement from anybody,” he said.

He believes that the controversy is an attempt to paint Stonebwoy in a bad light, as though he deliberately planned his show to compete with Akwaaba UK’s event.

“I think it is just some sort of orchestration for people to put Stonebwoy in a bad light, to make him look like he is the one trying to go against them,” he added.

Chief Stylz also pointed out that the situation is creating unnecessary tension between Stonebwoy and R2Bees, who are part of the other event.

“They’re essentially trying to pit the two artistes against each other. Stone is very good friends with R2Bees, and Stone and Mugeez are very close. I respect them; they are legends. But when this happens, it makes the fans believe that something is going on between them,” he noted.

Additionally, he refuted claims that Stonebwoy declined to perform at the 68th Independence Anniversary celebration in the UK, organized by Alordia Promotions and West Coast Entertainment.

"Alordia himself knows very well about the audios circulating... If you have a personal relationship with Stonebwoy and send a request personally, he might not see it on time. They didn't send a request to the management, so why would they say they sent a request? There wasn't anything like that," he clarified.

Chief Stylz assured fans that Stonebwoy remains focused on delivering an unforgettable show and urged everyone to avoid unnecessary conflicts over the matter.
