Fantana has been engaged in a beef with her label mate, Wendy Shay, in the past few days with each of them throwing jabs on social media. It will be recalled that Fantana recently described Wendy Shay as a local champion during an interview on GHOne TV. Fantana, while making a point about female artistes in Ghana, chose Efya, Becca, and Wiyaala as the most prestigious female music stars with international recognition. She described Wendy Shay and the rest of the ladies as local champions explaining that all their exploits are only known in Ghana. Wendy Shay who was offended by the statement came on social media to jab her label mate by asking her to make hit tracks with her big teeth instead of news headlines. Fantana then came up with a swift reply in which she described Wendy Shay as ugly and likened her to man. She later went on Instagram live to throw more punches and even stated that she did not want any songs from RuffTown again. This triggered a response from Bullet who summoned Fantana to a meeting on Monday, May 18, 2020, to ostensibly talk about her future with the label. But from all indications, the meeting did not come as Fantana failed to show up. Instead of attending the meeting, she decided to watch movies at home. As if to taunt Bullet Fantana shared a photo on Monday evening to indicate that she did not step out of her house. The photo has Fantana showing her living room and TV to show amovieplaying on the screen.

The Kumasi metropolis was thrown into a state of frenzy last Saturday as thousands of fans flocked the Baba Yara Sports Stadium for Sarkodie’s Rapperholic Concert that climaxed the 2025 Momo Fest.
Despite a heavy rainfall, the event, powered by MTN, drew unprecedented crowds for the month-long initiative to promote financial inclusion, the use of mobile money, and raise awareness on MoMo fraud prevention.
The musical event was preceded by educational roadshows, cashless market fairs, and community engagement activities across the country.
Vendors at the MoMo Cashless Market and Fair, set up within the stadium premises, offered goods and services payable exclusively through mobile money, giving patrons a live demonstration of MoMo’s utility.
The concert, headlined by multiple award-winning rapper Sarkodie, featured performances from several high-profile Ghanaian artistes including Medikal, Kofi Kinaata, Donzy, Kweku Smoke, and Efya.
But the appearance of Shatta Wale, who joined Sarkodie on stage, took the excitement a notch higher as it marked a rare public collaboration between the two top acts.
The event would go into the history books as one of the largest music gatherings in Kumasi and a fitting conclusion to a festival that sought to blend innovation with entertainment.
