Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale has declared that he is a servant of God on a divine mission to assist the youth with his music.
On Saturday, December 2, 2023, at the Guinness Accravaganza, Shatta Wale pledged to make a difference in the lives of young people by trying to spare them the struggles he had to endure growing up.
He highlighted how his music is a vehicle for sharing God’s word and shared intimate accounts of his one-on-one encounters with the Almighty.
“God has blessed us, and I just want people to follow me not just for my music. I am just a servant of God, preaching through my music. Sometimes I sit down and talk to God alone, sometimes. I just want to try my possible best to let people know that he’s The King of Kings.”
Shatta Wale urged the kids to have faith in themselves, refuted myths about mystical practices, and thanked people who had faith in him.
“Nobody ever believed in me, but Ebe you, you and you, wey you believe in me today, so what I dey stand here Eno be Juju oo. If you dey go malam stop cos malam go chop your money, if you Wan go malam call me ago give you malam things, you go do you will succeed. Watch God because God go watch you.“
At the launch of his new real estate company, Feelbro houses, Shatta Wale gave five fans GHC 5000 as a concrete token of his support. He expressed the need for harmony in Ghana’s music industry and bemoaned the absence of artist cooperation to support their fans as a group.
“I wish Ghana music had the unity so we could support you, the fans, because you left all you were doing, paid money to come and watch us, and for that, we are grateful,” he stated.
Shatta Wale made a suggestion that he would host a music workshop in the upcoming year. The workshop seeks to empower young people with talent in both music and identity formation.
“Next year, I want to have a music workshop, and I want everyone to come on board. If you know say not only music, I just want to teach you how to be who you want to be and not like another person,” Shatta Wale expressed his vision for nurturing aspiring talents beyond the realm of music.
