Sammy Flex has addressed the backlash directed towards Shatta Wale following his appearance at the 13th African Games opening ceremony in Ghana.
Many music enthusiasts have expressed disappointment with Wale’s live performance, as it did not match his eccentric demeanor and stage presence. Furthermore, there were technical difficulties with the sound that interrupted the artist’s show.
Sally Mann, a prominent critic of Shatta Wale, also shared the same sentiment. According to her, despite Wale’s renowned stage presence, she felt that he fell short of expectations and seemed overwhelmed by the occasion, a proclamation that evoked an aura relative to entertainment in Ghana.
Furthermore, Sally criticized Shatta Wale’s choice of songs, suggesting that there were more suitable options to entertain the audience.
During an interview with Andy Dosty on Adom TV, Sally did not hold back in calling out Shatta Wale for what she considered a lacklustre show at the UG Sports Stadium.
Despite criticism from fans who expected a more dynamic and authentic performance from the artist known for his unique stage presence, Sammy Flex commended Shatta Wale for delivering what he deemed a remarkable show.
Responding to the flurry of criticisms, Sammy Flex asserted on X that Wale’s performance was the exact demand from the organisers since the team was briefed on what the organisers needed.
“The team organizing the start of the All African Games had a clear vision for the performance. After many discussions with Shatta Movement, Shatta Wale and his team were briefed on what was needed for the desired impact. Shatta Wale delivered precisely what was requested and the world loved it,’ Sammy Flex wrote.
