The Rift Between Baba Sadiq and Stonebwoy

The conflict between Baba Sadiq and Stonebwoy started when Stonebwoy didn’t attend Baba Sadiq’s 3Music Sallahfest event, citing a breach of their agreement. Stonebwoy said that they had agreed not to share flyers for the concert since it was a charity event, not a paid one.

However, he claimed that Baba Sadiq went ahead and shared the flyers, which led Stonebwoy to cancel his participation just days before the event. On the other hand, Baba Sadiq said that Stonebwoy didn’t show up because he was upset that his music rival, Shatta Wale, was also scheduled to perform at the same event.
