Budding artiste, Maa Adwoa has claimed that the sound clash between Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale was wrong because it does not represent what Ghana stands for.

According to her, the most original Ghanaian music genre is the Highlife genre, therefore it would have made more sense if the sound lash was between two artistes from that genre.

She explained that the dancehall genre is not promoting the local musicians as most of them are into the preferred highlife sector. She expressed her displeasure at the organisers of the show for not considering her point in the first place.

The "fine boy" hitmaker lamented that most organisers of shows are only looking for personal profit and only a few are looking to push Ghana forwards. 

"The clash between the two dancehall acts was very entertaining but could have been much fruitful if it was between Highlife musicians instead of other foreign genres.

"Imagine a clash between Bisa Kdei and Kwabena Kwabena, one between Kofi Kinaata and Kuami Eugene and another between Sista Afia and Adina.

"Regardless of whoever wins, the result would always be productive to our culture because this is highlife music,''

She then further explained the need for the highlife genre to be pushed by Ghanaians as it is the only genre that Ghanaians can properly boast of. 

"Like Stonebwoy confessed recently, Highlife music has been a very great influence on his music so imagine giving this genre the hype it needs.

"I urge organisers of the SoundClash and other corporate bodies to reconsider my message and do something to give highlife much attention.

"If Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale had a peaceful lyrical clash, then getting Highlife musicians to clash on stage is highly possible,'' Maa Adwoa concluded.
