By Kehinde Okeowo
The banter between Nigerian singer, Burna Boy and Ghanaian rapper, Shatta Wale has assumed a messy dimension as the latter shades the former that his mother controls his career.
Burna Boy, who features in Shatta Wale’s song ‘Hosanna’ threw a shade at Wale after he accepted his challenge and named the Accra Stadium as the venue.
He told the Ghanaian dancehall artist to quit pretending that he feels his challenge was a singing face-off and that he wants them to settle their differences once and for all as real men.

He went on to tell him that could easily make the rapper’s life a living hell and shaded him that he is way richer than him.
In a now-deleted post on his Instagram story, Burna Boy said, “This guy thinks I have time. @shattawalenima this ain’t 8mile! No be rap battle.
“It’s a fist battle like the type real men do. We can do it anywhere you want; behind closed doors or in stadium for the world to see.
“Stop acting like you don’t know i’ve been trynna set this up since january last year. Consider this an easy way out for you because I could easily make your life a living hell anywhere you go outside Ghana., “Dem dey play South African, American and UK music also for Ghana but na Nigeria own be issue. Something fishy is smelling.
“You know I got more money than all your godfathers combined.
Fool wants to come and sing rubbish. I’m trynna see ur teeth and blood on the floor boy. You are talking about singing. Joker.” (sic)
In response, Shatta Wale noted that he has respect for Burna Boy’s mum and that he was going to break his neck during the challenge.
He also said he has spent a lot on the Grammy-winning Nigerian artist.
Shatta Wale wrote, “You lucky I respect your mother like I go say your mother waaaaaaa. See what fame did to you.
“Your boy, Shalala, knows how much I have spent on you for seven months. I no go beat u, I go break your neck. Don’t come to Ghana. You called for this. Don’t call the police when you step into Ghana.” (sic)
The rapper, however, took the banter to another level as he threw caution to the wind shading Burna Boy’s mum, accusing her of running his son’s career.
He also accused him of hiding his father from the public.
“Remember my mother doesn’t control my career. I run my own shit street way.
“So if your mother dey watch you diss me today and she go forgot I saved your ass up when police was all over you in naija. Then she toooo dierrr. No wonder I don’t know your father.
“I don’t think you really got father training. You are hiding your father from everyone because you said you don’t want people to know he is a fitter.
“When you were on the run, who hosted you and your mother and your ashawo South African girlfriend?” he tweeted.
