Dancehall artiste Shatta Wale
Dancehall artiste Charles Nii Armah Mensah, popularly known Shatta Wale, has urged the President of Ghana to cause a change in the entertainment industry.
He believes that since John Dramani Mahama is resetting the country, there will be a need for a reset in the entertainment space.
Shatta Wale is of the view that young people who want to pursue a career in the space need to know that it’s business and not just fun.
He made this known in a letter he wrote to the president via social media. His letter read: “Letter to our new President of Ghana. I wish our new president John Dramani Mahama would also reform our music system to attract more professionals on radio and television, similar to the appointment of new ministers when they assume power.
“The entertainment industry needs that change. The younger ones coming can’t go through what some of us have been through. My humble wish… just for the next generations to come and see this music business as a job and not just fun.”
