Beautiful Boiy Ranks Newton Light at No. 89 — Over Mic Issues and Manager Drama at Balakina Concert

In what is fast becoming “the lyrical beef no one saw coming”, Hohoe-based rapper Beautiful Boiy has taken a jab — or should we say a mic drop — at fellow artist Newton Light, the “Ebe Cheat” hitmaker, all via WhatsApp status!
This lyrical low-key drama traces back to the just-ended Balakina Sala Concert organized by Qwaku Messiah. Things got a little tense when Newton Light reportedly expressed displeasure over mic disruptions during his performance — an honest complaint or a public dig?
Apparently, Beautiful Boiy wasn’t too pleased — not with the sound issues, but with what he believes was disrespect shown to his manager. And he didn’t keep it in the group chat. In a status post dripping with indirects and passive-aggressive emojis (we assume), he shaded Newton Light, claiming they once tried to help his career and even removed his verse from a joint project.
And it doesn’t stop there.

The ultimate disrespect? Beautiful Boiy ranked Newton Light number 89 in the “Hohoe Artist Hierarchy”. That’s not just shade — that’s eclipse-level darkness.

But Newton Light didn’t let that slide either. In a counter-response, he argued that if a manager is messing up, no one should be silenced for speaking up. He added a juicy twist: he gave Beautiful Boiy’s manager the first platform to perform in Jasikan.

Now the fans are split:
“Should artists call out poor sound setups?”
“Or should they mind how they address team members behind the scenes?”
As microphones get louder, so does the controversy. Is this a clash of ego, or a call for better event management?
Stay tuned — because this Hohoe vs. Jasikan mic match might just have more verses to drop.
