Gospel singer, Joe Mettle, has shared his opinion on the decision on the VGMA board’s exclusion of dancehall musicians Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale from the awards scheme.
Joe Mettle said, the indefinite ban given to both artiste has caused a difference and this is because Shatta and Stonebwoy have made peace.

He made this comment on TV3’s New Day during an interview with Johnnie Hughes.
As quoted:
” I think both artistes have been able to come together to fix their differences and I’m sure whatever was between them is fine now. I think when they were banned, the organizers weren’t sure the artistes could fix this and I think the ban helped in pushing them into the direction they’ve been able to get to.”
So personally, I don’t think even if the ban if lifted it’ll be a bad decision. Because they’ve work in the year under review, both artistes have worked really hard so excluding them from the scheme will be unfair.”
