Stonebwoy was announced as winner for the Reggae and Dancehall Artistes for the year. Whiles receiving his award on stage, Shatta Wale and his team approached the stage which resulted in the brawl and putting the event on hold for a few minutes for calm to prevail. During the confrontation Stonebwoy was seen wielding a gun on stage during the disturbance that night. The show was continued after the two musicians were ushered out of the room by the security at the venue.
