Shatta Wale lashes out to Ghanaians claiming he copied Burna Boy on his latest single

Details: On Friday, 20th October 2022, Shatta Wale released a new single titled 'Cash Out'.

The mid-tempo song has a composition and a delivery similar to Burna Boy's style. The similarity has drawn criticism and mockery from Ghanaian fans who claim Shatta Wale is attempting to glean a hit by copying the Grammy-winning megastar.

'If you don't know music don't talk': Shatta Wale has reacted to the criticism as he demands that fans who don't know music are the ones making the misguided comments about him copying Burna Boy on 'Cash Out'.

"Your brother drops song and it's doing well. Instead of supporting the song, Ghanaians are busy saying he copied Burna Boy. It's a shame...Let me tell you something if you don't know music just shut up. Everybody sings and everybody does music," Shatta Wale said in the post.

Shatta Wale is not the first Ghanaian artist that will be mocked by fans for copying Nigerian artists and sound. During an interview with Pulse Nigeria, Ghanaian singer Camidoh revealed that it's only misguided fans that will criticize him for sounding like a Nigerian as his music isn't only for Ghanaians.
