For the past few years, Shatta Wale has churned out numerous hit songs and has attracted a cult following that translates into the patronage of his craft but he has not made it to the BET Awards yet.
While some have blamed this on sheer hate on the artiste by industry gurus who may be voters or selection committee members of the awards,
others have attributed it to Shatta Wale’s neglect for quality production and international ‘connections.’
But the self- acclaimed dance hall king is unfazed by these talks. A day after news broke that Stonebwoy had been nominated in the Best International Act Africa category in the 2017 BET Awards, he took to Facebook to react to the debate.
“My B.E.C.E. certificate sef ano know where e dey. Then we deh come worry about BET. Money dey call me for my brain….
” He posted.
