Sarkodie and M.anifest bromance (rap beef): Real or publicity stunt?

It is no secret to the people in the Ghanaian music industry, that the bond between Sarkodie, Manifest and Jay So is very undeniable.
The top listed three have found themselves together in studios on countless occasions therefore it comes as a surprise with the sudden beef between them.
My information sources have confirmed that it all started at the 2016 VGMA after Sarkodie won Best Rapper and EL the artiste of the year didn't think Sark deserved to win, El said this in a radio interview with Bola Ray.
Therefore, allegedly Sarkodie released ‘Bossy’ song and it was directed at El.
But Jay So who was featured in the track confirmed that ‘Bossy’ was produced in April whiles VGMA happened in May, so we are yet to relate the possibility of Bossy being a ‘diss’ song to EL.
Quite recently Manifest released ‘god MC’ which immediately received much attention as most perceived it was directed at Sarkodie for calling himself a King in Ghanaian rap.
Sarkodie's fans sparked up as a result and took to social media to support their king who also replied with ground breaking ‘Kanta’ track which was obviously directed at Manifest and mocking him for wearing weird style of local GTP.
Then, social Media once more took to judge both tracks with lots of mockery on the use of ‘Pro bono’ wrongly by Sarkodie and criticizing him mocking local fabrics brand GTP.
However, Sarkodie’s lawyer have apologised on his behalf for mentioning the brand GTP.
Meanwhile, Gemini and Jayso who produced ‘Bossy’ have also released new songs addressing the ongoing ‘beef’ between Manifest and Sarkodie.
As Gemini called for a cease-fire, Jay So on the other hand added more salt to the injury by taking Sarkodie’s side and calling Manifest jealous of Sarkodie and using him to trend on social media.
Jay So stated in the song:
“I played ‘Bossy’ for your man way back in April
You told me it was hot way back in April
So why the diss track? I can say that you’re hateful
You took shot to that track that had me and him
And you supposed to be a friend
I mean it’s just rap but it’s bogus of you to pretend
I feel like you betrayed our friendship so you could trend
I hope you know how this will end?”
The track left many confused about the real intention behind the beef as the three are quiet close and it doesn’t make sense that Manifest will release ‘godMC’ for Sarkodie if ‘Bossy track’ wasn’t even directed at him.
I think the two answers to these doubts are, its either a planned publicity for all three artistes or an actual beef based on Manifest betrayal to their friendship.
Also maybe M.anifest did it in other to promote his up coming album and tours, because Sarkodie has the largest fan base in Ghana.
