Ghanaian dancehall musician, Charles Nii Armah Mensah better known by his stage name Shatta Wale, has been overjoyed after Vybz Kartel, the legendary Jamaican musician called him the “King of Dancehall” at his Freedom Concert.
In a recent media interview on January 8 2024, after his return from Jamaica, Shatta Wale compared getting Vybz Kartel’s endorsement to winning a Grammy Award
He emphasised that it has always been his dream to perform with the Jamaican dancehall legend.
“It has been beautiful, and it’s like a dream come true for Shatta Movement fans because everyone knew me from day one,” Shatta Wale said.
“For me to reach the level of Vybz Kartel and perform with him is such a good feeling,” he stated.
“For Vybz Kartel to endorse somebody like Shatta Wale is like winning a Grammy because he is a global icon, everyone loves him, and he is one of the greatest.”
Shatta Wale also gave an explanation for his decision to play three particular songs during his stage performance in Jamaica and left his hit bangers ‘Dancehall King’
“My team checked the streaming algorithms, and because we were in Jamaica, people were tuning into songs like ‘On God’ and the one I did with Vybz Kartel. That’s why I performed those tracks to open up the market,” he said.
“I know some people were wondering why I didn’t perform ‘Dancehall King’, but that song is for Ghanaians only,” he added.
