Ghanaian artist Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr veter, known as Shatta Wale, has blasted his co-Ghanian artists for performing for peanuts overseas.
In an interview with Glitch Africa’s Rants, Bants, and Confessions, he blasted his colleagues for performing for peanuts overseas.
He noted how many go overseas and get paid $5k or $7k for performance in a bid to impress their fans. Telling them to go sit down, he told them to learn from Nigerian artists who are making waves internationally.
Shatta noted how the big 3 are Burna Boy, Davido, and Wizkid. He stated that Rema had entered the list.
“You see those festivals they go for, it’s $5000 and $7000, I wouldn’t go there. They want to impress Ghanaians that they are performing for a white crowd. Now it’s Burna Boy, Davido, and Wizkid’s time. Even Rema has now been added to the list. Go and fucking sit down and learn your homework”
Taking to the comment section, many were praised for his honesty.
