In a recent YouTube video shared by Hidden Truth and seen by InsightNewsGh, Shatta Wale, the self-proclaimed Dancehall King, took the opportunity to address what he perceives as unjust criticism from certain individuals within the entertainment industry.
The video, which has since gone viral, showcases Shatta Wale expressing his frustrations and dishing out warnings, particularly concerning rising star Jay Bahd of the Asakaa Boys.
During the candid video, Shatta Wale didn’t hold back in calling out so-called “industry players,” specifically targeting entertainment panelists like Arnold Asamoah Baidoo of UTV and radio journalist Andy Dosty.
Shatta Wale mocked these individuals, suggesting that they should focus on financial success rather than trying to bring him and other musicians like Sarkodie and Stonebwoy down. He humorously thanked his stars that show promoters aren’t panelists, hinting that these critics are, in his eyes, misguided and often financially strapped.
In a surprising twist, Shatta Wale shifted his tone to commend the Asakaa Boys, a rising group in the Ghanaian music scene. Jay Bahd, in particular, received high praise from Shatta Wale for his hard work as a street boy. However, the mood took a serious turn when Shatta Wale issued a stern warning to any industry player contemplating crossing paths with Jay Bahd, asserting that they would face his wrath.

Fast forward to the present, and Jay Bahd has released a new song titled “Gangalia,” featuring none other than Shatta Wale. The collaboration was anticipated to be a Christmas banger, but reactions on social media suggest that fans are divided, with some praising Jay Bahd’s efforts and others criticizing Shatta Wale’s contribution, calling it a “wack verse.”
As the industry buzzes with controversy and fans continue to express their opinions online, it remains to be seen how this episode will impact the relationships between artists and critics in the Ghanaian music scene. Shatta Wale’s warning, coupled with the mixed reviews of “Gangalia,” adds an extra layer of intrigue to the unfolding drama within the vibrant West African music industry.
