Celebrated Sound Engineer and producer Davis Kojo Kyei known in showbiz circles as Kaywa has said Ghanaians should rise up and disband fans movements in Ghana.

This comes after a brawl erupted between Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale camps on stage after Stonebwoy was announced the winner of ‘Reggae/Dancehall Artiste of the Year’, at the VGMA on Sunday which caused the former to pull out a gun.

Speaking to host DJ Nyaami on 'We Dey Vybe' on SVTV Africa, Kaywa noted that, this scuffles usually happens because of the followers who don't understand themselves. They think their Artiste is better than the other which usually leads to a fight and for that matter movements in Ghana should be disbanded.

"Music is a form of entertainment, not a war but the problem is, today every artist says he or she has a group or movement, and this is what usually causes the problem. The followers think their Artiste is better than the other and this usually leads to a fight. So the thing is not about the two leaders, it's about the followers. That is the problem, music is about entertainment and not fight. Let's all rise up and disband these movements in Ghana"

He further noted that "the leaders are not the problem, no! It's the movements, the followers. Let me give you a typical example, in the very season I was trending and Killbeatz too was trending and people started comparing Kaywa to Killbeatz and all that. You hear people saying Killbeatz is better than Kaywa and vice versa but Killbeatz is someone I personally taught sometime back, and every student is better than his teacher so I take pride in that as a teacher. So it's the grassroots that start inciting the fight, but as a leader, you should know it's a career, you want to go ahead and don't listen to those things"

Kaywa further advised Artistes to preach unity in their songs and talk to their followers not to fight amongst themselves to bring peace in Ghana and the industry.
