Ghanaian dancehall artist Shatta Wale made waves recently when he openly criticized President Nana Akufo-Addo and fellow musicians Sarkodie and Stonebwoy in an interview on the Glitch Africa Studios podcast Rants, Bants, and Confessions. Shatta Wale, who is well-known for making audacious and even contentious remarks, did not hold back as he made lighthearted barbs at his "dearest enemies" in the entertainment business.
Sarkodie, who goes by the moniker "The Landlord," often dresses more like a lawyer than a musician, according to Shatta Wale, who made the amusing suggestion that his somber design choices are out of step with the music industry. He continued by criticizing Stonebwoy, saying that stardom has caused him to become conceited and that his recent success has left him with a "swollen head."
Shatta Wale, who never stops talking about President Akufo-Addo, added that when he was just starting out as "Bandana," he was causing a stir in the music industry while the president was still completing his "last certificate." Shatta Wale's extensive history in Ghanaian music and his conviction that he is a legend in the field are referenced in this statement.
Reactions from fans and listeners have been divided, with some seeing Shatta Wale's remarks as amusing banter and others as typical of his outspoken style. But it's evident that Shatta Wale still exudes an unreserved enthusiasm on every stage he appears on, reminding viewers of his candid style of talking about his career and his competitors.
