You are not living in an alternate universe and this is not a dream – Shatta Wale is actually praising someone other than himself.
Even more, he’s praising a major rival such as Samini, who he’s often at loggerheads with.
Samini said on Starr Chat on Wednesday that Shatta Wale should be thankful to him for making his career relevant and it seems Shatta Wale agrees with him.
You see why we can’t think far? Usually someone says something Shatta doesn’t like and he attacks him like crazy.
Anyway, here’s what the ‘dancehall king’ had to say about Samini.
I have always said it and I will say it, I think we have people to always celebrate. Samini has been a legend in our industry and I believe he has helped Ghana music grow. He is one of my favorite artists when it comes to the genre of my career. I believe he is an icon to Ghana because most youth that supports Shatta Wale also love Samini so everybody should know that he [is] a big star and he needs to be celebrated,”
“I want to tell him that he has paved the way for some of us and we really respect him for that. We thank him for his understanding and the love he has for the industry. People feel maybe I have stepped on his toe and all that but he is a brother and he knows what he is about, big ups Samini, long live Samini,”
