Veteran Ghanaian rapper, Obrafour has advised artists who engage their colleagues in beefs not to extend it beyond the showbiz circles.
Obrafour who is believed to be one of the greatest Ghanaian rapper of all time said it’s unhealthy to diss people’s mothers just because you have a score to settle with a fellow musician.
Obrafour further said the motive behind the kind of beefs they did back in the days was to boost sales but not what has permeated the industry lately.
When George Quaye of Joy FM asked him his opinion about the current beefs in the industry, the rapper said:
“I don’t subscribe to it at all, talking about people’s mothers who have nothing to do with their music is a no-no. These are people who have nothing to do with the music, it is just sad “
“Reggie Rockstone in one of his songs says he was born with a microphone in his hands…the jab comes as no one is born with a microphone in their hands. it was just beautiful,”.
Obrafuor added that they never took their beef personal, they did it only for commercial purpose.

Stonebwoy Begs VGMA Not To Cheat Like 3Music Awards
Dancehall act, Stonebwoy has begged organizers of VGMA to eschew all forms of biases and be just as much as possible.
According to Stonebwoy, his enemies are working around the clock to see him disappointed in the wake of the event, but he is positive he will rise above all those pits.
In his latest tweet, he has begged Charterhouse to do a just job and award deserving musicians, not the mediocre ones.
It can be recalled that following the 3Music Award, both Stonebwoy and his manager displayed their disappointment on how things went down after his archival, Shatta Wale, bagged almost all the awards for the program.
Speaking in an interview on Joy FM, Stonebwoy has argued that, he deserved more than the 3 awards he had.
“People’s awards are sitting in people’s homes,” he said and call on the organisers to be impartial.
However, in order for the Bhimnation to become champions of the VGMA night, Stonebowy has entreated all his fans to vote massively in these last days.

Stonebwoy Blasts 3Music Awards For Awarding Mediocrity
Dancehall singer Stonebwoy has expressed disappointment in organizers of 3Music Awards.
The “Shuga” hit maker won three awards, but says he was very disappointed not to have won more.
Stonebwoy’s rival Shatta Wale emerged the biggest winner on the night after grabbing seven (7) awards.
Speaking for the first time on the outcome of the awards, Stonebwoy said he was disappointed, while urging organisers of the 3Music Awards and other awards to eschew mediocrity.
“I was disappointed definitely but I kept to myself I was not going to say anything,” he said on Joy FM’s Showbiz A-Z, hosted by George Quaye.
“People’s awards are sitting in people’s homes…In Ghana sometimes mediocrity puts people who have to reward and award things in a box where they just lose it all and have to play by that but that will not bring any benefit, that will not bring any hope to those who are looking up to us. They would only have to turn to do mediocre stuff because that is being rewarded.”
He added: “So I will beg off all these awards organisers to try so hard in their own way even if they have to go out of their lines once they believe and know that this is the right thing because the right is devoid of influence…the right thing will vindicate itself?”
“It’s our music but the role that you play could be a per cent that adds up but it actually makes a big difference…you guys hold a very huge spot where when favouritism come inside and bias come inside and influence come inside it will definitely look someway.”
