George Britton calls on Media to condemn attacks on artists amid Kelvyn Boy and Stonebwoy Brouhaha

Artist Manager and Media Person, George Britton has called on the media to condemn attacks on artists in the country amid the ongoing beef between Kelvyn Boy and Stonebwoy.

He noted that such attacks were becoming too many in the industry and needed to be condemned with all certainty.

I think I am a bit disappointed in the media because not so many of us have come out to condemn the actions but rather we are attacking either Kelvyn or Stonebwoy.

George Britton was speaking on Entertainment Review on Newday, Friday, June 26, 2020.

“Until we condemn and punish people who go into these, we may not know what would happen tomorrow,” he said.

According to him, no matter the reaction of the two, the attack needed to be condemned first and foremost adding that it was not the first time such an incident had been recorded.

Arnold Asamoah Baidoo, an Entertainment Analyst who was also on the show said such development does not help the industry.

Kelvyn Boy and Stonebwoy Beef

On Monday, June 22, some unknown persons attacked Afro beats Artist Kelvyn Boy at the new Electroland branch in Ashaiman in Accra where he had been booked to perform at the opening ceremony.

The attacker was said to be a sympathizer of Stonebwoy.

Soon after the incident, Kelvyn Boy who is a former signee of the Burniton Music Group took to his Twitter handle to share a series of Tweets which many believed were directed at his former boss and CEO of Burniton Music Group, Livingstone Etse Satekla, known as Stonebwoy in the Music industry.

However, a statement from Stonebwoy’s camp has denied any involvement in the incident adding that the allegations were only to tarnish his reputation.

“For the avoidance of doubt, we state emphatically, that we are no way associated with the alleged scuffle,” the statement said.
