Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Shatta Wale, a dancehall artist, has advised his peers to show respect for the forefathers of Ghana’s music industry, even when they disagree with each other.
Years ago, Shatta got into a fight with the hip-hop singer Reggie Rockstone and the dancehall musician Samini.
The renowned musician claimed that despite verbal assaults, he never crossed the line by downplaying their impact.
Rapper Sarkodie was criticized by Shatta for disrespecting his senior coworker Samini because of his celebrity in a Facebook video.
In his letter, Shatta also vowed to confront any musician who dared to disrespect the musicians he described as giants of Ghanaian music.
He said: “It is your dream to be like Samini. Shout out to Reggie Rockstone, you see sometimes me and these people have beef but the reason why God will bless me is that I don’t lose that picture of them being legends. I don’t f***king lose that picture of whom they have to be in front of my face…I will have a problem with Reggie Rockstone but you see him as a legend, godfather and originator of something, a pioneer, forget everything.”
“Now any artiste who will fool with any big artiste, I will beat you. The fooling is becoming too much, what do you know? Where were you in the days of KK Fosu, Tic Tac and Kokoveli? Today you want to flex them, if you try that, I will lash you,” he warned.
