Shatta Wale, the leader of the boisterous SM fandom, has bemoaned the level of hostility he has observed thus far in the entertainment industry.
Shatta said he sometimes regrets his professional choice, which accentuated his frustration.
His remarks follow his absence from this year’s Hogbetsotso Beach Rave performance, which has since dominated social media conversation.
In response to these accusations, Shatta questioned why people believed he skipped class on purpose without knowing the reason.
“Oh, Ghana. Sometimes erh you people dy do aah then adey feel say I chose the wrong profession. But I know I didn’t chose the wrong profession because I am destined for greatness.
I have got so many haters who have so many evil thoughts about me. But I thank God that the ones who want to learn and listen to me are doing it,” Shatta added.
Wale also highlighted the program organizers’ disrespect, which led to his notorious decision to withdraw from the event.
To that effect, he said:
“Ibe show wey them contract me for. We no dey go greet greet people. Ago taya before the show starts sef. I know how people dey love me and I know I’d have to get into the crowd. Everybody go dey talk to you and your voice all go strain.
“I wanted to keep the energy for my lovely people of volta. As I ask them whether ino be this thing I tell them before coming, I hear sey one of the organizers say if I no go come the radio station, then them no go take me go my hotel room. So you expect me to carry all the luggage I came with to the radio station?” the dancehall musician stated.
