Multiple award-winning Ghanaian Dancehall singer, Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr, popularly known as Shatta Wale, has said while other artistes dream of performing at the renowned O2 Arena, his dream is to have a billion dollars in his account.
The controversial rapper stated that he has accomplished all that he can from music industry and does not care how he is seen anymore.
The rapper featured on a Twitter Space hosted by Ghanaian media personality, Serwaa Amihere on Wednesday, and pointed out that he does not see the need to put Ghana on the global map when Ghanaians disrespect him and call him a drug addict.
He explained that his primary objective as an entertainer isn’t just about selling out concerts venues, rather, he is more interested in having one billion dollars in his account.
In his words; “You people call me a drug addict, why should I risk my life to fill a place for Ghanaians or the music industry? I am okay, I wanted to buy house, lands and investments, I am okay, so filling the O2 is not my priority, my priority is to keep a billion dollars in my account , that is where I am at right now. Nobody should disturb me about filling the 02 or my music.
After I filled the Accra Sports stadium, Ghanaians should have given me a helping hand to fill the 02 because I am not from London to be able to fill up the 02.
Asake alone could not fill the 02 , industry players contributed so if the Ghanaian industry is trying to burst someone who single-handedly filled the sports stadium without any promos, what more can I do”.
