Dancehall artiste Stonebwoy has for the first time reacted to his relatively poor showing at the 2019 edition of the 3Music Awards. The artiste, after bagging three awards at the event which was held at the Fantasy Dome on March 30, said he was simply disappointed. At this year’s awards, Stonebwoy lost out heavily to his arch-rival Shatta Wale, who bagged eight awards on the night.

They would only have to turn to do mediocre stuff because that is being rewarded,” Stonebwoy said. “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?” he added. The ‘Shuga’ hitmaker stressed that he did campaign for the Awards and he believes that he “did the best I could to complement what the 3Music Awards will put out.” Stonebwoy further advised that “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.”  “I was disappointed definitely but I kept to myself I was not going to say anything,” he added and revealed that it was his manager who vented his anger at the organisers. According to him, even the organisers later admitted that the awards did not go entirely well and urged them “to reward hard work.”
