Months after his dirty fights with Burna Boy, Shatta Wale has made a U-turn, and is now praising Nigerian singers.
The Ghanaian singer whose real name is Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr., has used his social media page to promote the Nigerian music industry while disparaging the music scene in his own nation as “class 2 children.”
The Ghanaian reggae-dancehall performer claims that Nigerians should establish universities in other African nations so that their music can be studied.
He likened Nigerian music to legendary popstar Michael Jackson. Shatta said he listened to various Nigerian music acts; ranging from Asake, Olamide, and Fireboy, and the only conclusion was for the music to be studied in what he called “Cultural Studies.”
The controversial music star has always had a thing for his colleagues in the Nigerian entertainment scene as he was at some point entangled in a heated beef with the Nigerian music industry and fans at large.
The 38-year-old, who is known for his collaboration with Beyoncé on her Lion King album, was in December of last year caught throwing shades at Nigerian artistes after selling out the stadium for his concert.
At his concert in Ghana’s largest stadium, Shatta Wale revealed that he was informed he couldn’t fill the venue.
Shatta Wale boasted that the stadium was full and that he did not require Nigerian performers to sell out events.
