Shatta Wale is back in the news, and this time he has a message for his detractors who are ridiculing him for ripping off Burna Boy on his new tune.

Shatta Wale released a new track named 'Cash Out' on Friday, October 20th, 2022.

The mid-tempo song is composed and delivered in the style of Burna Boy. The resemblance has sparked criticism and scorn among Ghanaian fans, who believe Shatta Wale is attempting to steal a hit by imitating the Grammy-winning megastar.

Shatta Wale has responded to the criticism, claiming that fans who don't know music are the ones making incorrect remarks about him imitating 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 singer to be chastised by fans for imitating Nigerian artists and sounds. Camidoh, a Ghanaian musician, claimed in an interview with Pulse Nigeria that only confused fans will blame him for sounding like a Nigerian because his music isn't just for Ghanaians.
