In a recent interview, his colleague, Ghanian rapper and songwriter, Michael Owusu Addo popularly known as Sarkodie said that although he has a good relationship with his counterpart Shatta Wale, the latter insults him for no apparent reason.
The rap artiste further noted that he has lost count of the number of times Shatta Wale has attacked him verbally. Sarkodie made this known when he appeared on ‘Podcast and Chill with MACG’ in South Africa.
The legendary Ghanaian rap artiste said, “I have even lost count because my brother Shatta Wale is crazy. He just wakes up and something will happen. I have lost count of what exactly happened, he has done a lot.”
Born on October 17, the 38-year-old singer is best known for his hit songs like; Dancehall King, My level and We taking over.
However, one of his most notable works is the artiste’s collaboration with global superstar singer, Beyonce which also features Major Lazer on the track, Already, of the Grammy award-winning songstress’ album, Black is King.
