Few weeks ago, on-stage fight broke out at a major music awards show in Ghana after one of the country’s biggest artists went to collect a prize.
When Stonebwoy was awarded dancehall reggae artist of the year, his musical rival, Shatta Wale, and his entourage mounted the stage.
The two men have huge followings who regularly exchange insults over who is the best artist.
There were no major injuries and after a short delay the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards in the capital, Accra, resumed.
During the acceptance speech for another award, Stonebwoy apologised, Ghana news site Joy Online reported.
“I only had to react out of natural instincts because we all know how premeditative some people can be. We’ve seen on social media the threats and everything so we couldn’t come in unprepared,” he reportedly said.
“I come in peace and I go in peace and I apologise to the whole masses of Ghana that the awards is going to continue.”
In Ghana all guns have to be registered and licensed for a specific use, such as personal protection.
Later on Twitter, he thanked the police for calming things down.
“My crew had good intentions” in going up on stage, Shatta Wale is quoted as saying by the GhanaWeb news site.
He said he wanted to congratulate Stonebwoy on winning the award and bring unity to the music world.
On Twitter, Shatta Wale said: “Don’t play with a lion like that.”
This was the fifth year in a row that Stonebwoy took the best dancehall reggae artist title.
