Dancehall musician Shatta Wale has allegedly taken legal action against media personality Blakk Rasta, filing a defamation lawsuit reportedly valued at €100 million.
The lawsuit stems from a video published by Black Rasta in which Shatta Wale was described as “Shatta Wale, self-confessed King of fraud”, a characterization the claimant insists is damaging to his reputation.
Shatta Wale argues that the publication is both false and malicious, and has therefore caused him significant reputational harm.
In addition, the claimant is asking the court to declare that the remarks made in the video titled “SHATTA WALE, SELF-CONFESSED KING OF FRAUD” are defamatory in nature.
Among the reliefs being sought is a court order compelling the defendant to permanently remove or delete the video, which was uploaded on 15 December 2025, together with any related defamatory material across all his social media platforms.
Shatta Wale is also requesting an injunction to restrain Black Rasta, his associates, or anyone acting on his behalf from making, publishing, or circulating any further defamatory statements about him.
Furthermore, the claimant is calling for a public retraction and an unconditional apology to be posted on the defendant’s social media pages, as well as published as a full-page notice in the Daily Graphic, Ghanaian Times, and Graphic Showbiz newspapers.
In his statement of claim, Shatta Wale maintains that the comments made by Black Rasta, whether directly or by implication, are entirely untrue. He contends that the publications were deliberately crafted to suggest to “right-thinking members of society” that he is dishonest and morally corrupt.
