After publicly condemning its music industry and artistes, Shatta Wale has endorsed Nigerian music and seeks tutorship from Nigerian musicians.

The “Already” crooner publicly referred to Ghana music as a “disgrace” and urged his fellow Ghanaian artistes to “ask for help” as he is also on a quest to find himself a record label.

“Is better we stop arguing with Nigerian fans, promoters, etc and ask for help, myself I need a record label,” he tweeted.

“Ghana music is a disgrace, make we no lie, shouts to Nigeria, Yes I have said it,” he added.

Shatta’s tweet was a shock to the public, as he has in the past condemned Nigerian music and artistes.

“I don’t look up to any stupid Nigerian artiste, I look up to my fans. Fuck Nigeria,” he said at his “Freedom Concert” held at Accra sport stadium in December 2021.
