Ghanaian musician Charles Nii Armah Mensah, better known by his stage name Shatta Wale, claims that the nation missed a great opportunity to use divine intervention to grow the music industry.
He described his partnership with worldwide phenomenon Beyoncé as a heavenly chance for the business to shine globally.
In an interview with 3Music Network, Shatta Wale voiced his worry that the wrong people in the music industry receive too much attention.
He criticized the inclination to concentrate on individuals like as Sarkodie, emphasizing the necessity of refocusing on people who can actually take music to the next level.
“When people are talking about Nigeria, I don’t want them to continue because I feel like Ghana got their chance. Let me tell you, the last chance God gave us was Shatta Wale featuring Beyonce. But you see, we want to watch the coat man; we want somebody like Sarkodie.
“How many people even wish for Sarkodie to do a song with Jay Z? I pray Jay Z will just do it for him before the world comes to an end. That is the wish of all industry players for Sarkodie.
“It is not about behaving like Jay Z, but rather how real are you to the universe? Are you connecting yourself? Are you listening to what God is saying? People are not doing that; God gave us that last shot,” he said.
