Award-winning Ghanaian dancehall artist, Shatta Wale has said Sarkodie can never be bigger than him in anyway so people should desist from comparing the two of them.
Speaking on Empire 102.7 FM on Wednesday (9 August), Shatta Wale said it is disrespectful comparing him to Sarkodie when he came way before Sarkodie’s entrance on the music scene, and yet, people undermine his efforts because the Rapperholic is their favourite.
“So, the moment you compare me to Sarkodie, you make Sarkodie feel too big and when I talk to Sarkodie, he feels like he is big.
“Sarkodie can never be bigger than Shatta Wale in his life. Even when you give birth, there is a first born and a second born, you can’t give the first position to the second born. I’m not saying Sarkodie is not successful with what he is doing. He is playing his role as a musician but don’t compare me to Sarkodie,” he said.
Shatta Wale disclosed that comparing him to Sarkodie has made the two time VGMA Artiste of the Year grow wings since he feels they are on the same level.
During a recent discussion on United Showbiz following calls by the former French Ambassador for some Ghanaian artistes to be given diplomatic passports, Neat FM presenter, Ola Michael insinuated that the likes of Shatta Wale will make such a call difficult to implement.
To state his displeasure, Shatta Wale has released a diss song for Ola Michael which he says is to express his displeasure for always being negatively used as study case.
“Why didn’t he use Samini? He could have used anybody so why should Shatta Wale be used as an example in a diplomatic passport? Let’s think deeply, is it right?” he stated.
