In other news, Ghanaian rapper and dancehall star, Shatta Wale stirred reactions with his recent comment about Nigerian musicians.

The artiste said that Nigerians are too smart when it comes to doing business and it reflects in the music industry.

According to Shatta, they prefer taking the music business more seriously than to fight or get into beefs which is what happens in Ghana.

Speaking in a recent interview, the controversial singer said Nigerian singers hardly compete over superiority and they do not sing about feuds, rather, their songs dwell on love, enjoyment and other niceties.

He stressed that Nigerians do music whereas Ghanaian artistes compete with music. He also talked about how entertainers in his country refer to themselves as King, and he used the opportunity to throw a jab at his colleague, Stonebwoy who calls himself 1Gad.
