  Stop shaming SHATTA HATERS!!!HOW LONG SHALL THEY KILL OUR PROPHETS, WHILE WE STAND ASIDE AND LOOK. TODAY THE INJUSTICE IS AGAINST SHATTA, SOME DAY IT WILL BE AGAINST ALL OF GHANA. SO MANY IGNORANT AND DUMB(UNINTELLIGENT) HATTERS WITH NO SENSE OF BLACK HISTORY.THAT GHANA BET SELECTION COMMITTEE SHOULD BE ABOLISH. ENOUGH OF THE UNCREDIBLE SELECTIONS. HOW DO FOREIGNERS OPEN THEIR DOORS TO GHANAIAN ACTS WITH SUCH HIPPOCRACY FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE INDUSTRY? Every body knows that you are coming from a place of jealousy and envy. Shatta Wale is God ordained.Don't you see that all the musicians and enemies that try to bring him down, fall fast. Your own value dropped after he "FIRED YOU". It's not BET'S nor Shatta Wale's fault that he was not nominated. It's the pseudo-selection committee. TRUTH BE TOLD; SHATTA WALE IS THE BEST AND THE MOST VIBING GHANAIAN ACT NOW, EVEN IN CANADA WHEN I LIVE, I DO HEAR HIS MUSIC MORE THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER GHANAIAN ACT ON THE ETHNIC RADIO STATIONS. I do not blame you,I blame hi fellow Ghanaian musician, who are starving enough to accept anything and allow such injustice both in the VGMA awards and the Ghanaian BET selection committee. It's just a sabotaging move. I had some respect for you before, but now I see that some of you are shameless and less intelligent than I thought. If actions like these are allowed in Ghana, how would foreigners respect Ghanaians? WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF THE GHANA MUSIC UNION? Where are the toothless musicians who blah blah blah about injustice and yet they stay silence in certitude when others are robbed of their figment of justice, rights and earned recognition(awards). Can anyone in Ghana compare the volume, quality and the street hitting vibes of SHATTA'S work to that of Stonebwoy.God makes Shatta have the last laugh, all the time. Poor you and Okraku(laughable beyond measure)

  ALL OF YOU HATERS HAVE STARTED LOOKING SMALL, BY VIRTUE OF THE OBVIOUS FACTS. SHAME OF YOU ALL: GHANA MUSIC UNION, BET GHANA SELECTION COMMITEE, SHATTA'S FELLOW GHANAIAN ACTS. WITHOUT SHATTA, GHANA MUSIC WILL BE IN OBLIVIUM NOW, SARKODIE IS GREAT BUT NO LONGER CARRYING THE TORCH AND WE NEED SOMEONE TO DO THAT UNTIL THE NEXT BIG RAP OR HIPLIFE ACT. I am Ghanaian living in Canada, and only unintelligent beings or ignorant MOTHERFUCKERS LIKE TRUMP CALIBER SORT OF BEINGS SUPPORT SUCH INJUSTICE. IT WILL ONE DAY DROP AT YOUR FOOT STEPS. LOOK THE low level jealousy and envy on display in Ghana against Shatta Wale, because he is riding higher than all at the moment. WAIT FOR YOUR TIME YOU ALL!!!

  SM: LYRICS COOKED IN A JAR OF TREES.
  
  Shatta Movement, is not like we are fucking drugs on brains, but about lyrics laid with gangsta precision. Every punch-line is coated with street literature, which oxford-clerics may find very vulgar— but who the fuck cares about soft asses? To decipher the codes of Street language, a wild sense of humour embedded in sarcasm is required. It may sound weird for nonresidents but a normal day in our ghettos. Shatta Wale the king of African dancehall and SM empire grinds hard in his lyrics in this same manner.
  
  In his songs, the flow of his emotions shrouded in memories of ghetto struggles accounts for his husky thunder-striking voice. In that voice are hidden stories about his days in the ghettos with the trees. Take it or leave it, a bit of fire-on-leaves is soothing to the soul, especially for those of us in this jungle. Whether in Jamaican Patwah or Ghanaian local dialect, he strings words at varying pace to create diverse rhythms that leaves ever lasting sweet melodies in the hearts of music lovers world wide.
  
  Shatta Wale's prowess in beat making and music production has earned him the accolade "Da Maker". The meeting of kicking sounds of artillery and gun cocks, shots and shellings, and ghetto onomatopoeias synched with sounds of typical musical instruments, gives a gangsteric effect resembling the blitzkrieg of Nazi Hitler in Moscow. His lyrics bumps and tumps on the beat either in a ragged, hiped , highed, cooled or 'dancehalled' way. The full complement of his artistry will involuntarily arose every neuron in your body, leaving you with no option than to dance, even as a hater.
  
  Amidst the lyrical bluntness, his songs carry a positive message, that eludes those who are not preview to the full complement of his repertoire , the real stories that inspire those lyrics and his ghetto background. Shatta Wale epitomizes the marginalization of some minorities in society by the rich and powerfuls. He had risen above all odds and shown some kind of resilience, relentlessness, and staunchness that motivate the youth of our time.
  
  World Alert Lerical Entertainer (Wale) is a real monarchy poised to reign forever in the music fraternity... We bring the heat to our enemies without mincng words... Straight outa Gh SM4lyf
