Fameye’s Heartfelt Plea for Shatta Wale: What’s Next?

In Ghana’s ever-vibrant entertainment world, friendships and collaborations among artists often capture fans’ attention as much as the music itself. But when one artist suddenly goes quiet toward another, fans immediately start asking questions. That’s exactly what’s happening now after Fameye, the “Nothing I Get” hitmaker, made a heartfelt post expressing confusion and disappointment over Shatta Wale’s sudden silence.

Fameye’s post, which has since gone viral, wasn’t just another casual tweet—it was a cry for understanding. The singer revealed that he and Shatta Wale used to be “super cool,” but for months, Wale has gone “completely mute” on him. Even more surprising, Fameye confessed that he has never met Shatta Wale in person, despite their long-standing online connection.

So what really happened between Fameye and Shatta Wale? Is there bad blood between them—or just a simple misunderstanding? Let’s break down everything you need to know.

Here’s exactly what Fameye wrote:

“My brother @Medikalbyk you for carry me go meet @shattawalegh for house cos he’s gone completely mute on me for months. We use to be super cool he no go fit vex me like that? Weyi en fans no dey gimme peace anytime I comment under his post!!! Come to think of it I have not met Wale in person before 💔”

In simple terms, Fameye feels hurt. He’s wondering why Shatta Wale, whom he used to share mutual respect and friendship with, has suddenly become silent. Fameye also mentioned Medikal, hinting that he wants the AMG rapper to act as a bridge to help him reconnect with Wale.

The message is emotional yet respectful—it’s not an attack. Fameye isn’t calling Shatta Wale out for clout; he’s genuinely expressing confusion and longing to fix whatever might have gone wrong.

Although this current tension seems new, a look back into Ghana’s entertainment archives shows a previous episode that might have caused an undercurrent of misunderstanding between the two.

1. The “247” Music Video Incident (2020)

In 2020, after the release of the song “247” by KiDi featuring Fameye, Shatta Wale made headlines for calling the video “low quality.” During a Facebook live session, he bluntly said that KiDi and Fameye could have done better with the visuals, describing it as something “not up to industry standard.”

Shatta Wale’s comment didn’t sit well with many fans. While some agreed with his critique, others felt it was unnecessary and demeaning to fellow Ghanaian artists who were trying to push creative boundaries on a budget.

Fameye, however, handled it maturely. Instead of retaliating, he publicly acknowledged Shatta Wale’s seniority and said he took the comment as constructive criticism. He explained that “247” was one of his favorite projects and that he believed in the song’s quality, both musically and visually.

Despite his polite response, this moment might have left some residue of discomfort. In Ghana’s entertainment circles, where egos can clash easily, even small misunderstandings can snowball into long periods of silence.

Interestingly, after the “247” episode, there were no open confrontations between Fameye and Shatta Wale. They both continued their respective careers—Shatta Wale releasing major hits like “On God” and “Killa Ji Mi”, while Fameye dropped inspirational tracks such as “Praise” and “Only You.”

They even interacted occasionally on social media. But as Fameye revealed, in recent months, something changed: Shatta Wale has been “completely mute” toward him.

Fameye’s post wasn’t just about airing frustration—it was also a call for reconciliation. By tagging Medikal, Fameye was appealing to one of Ghana’s most sociable rappers who maintains strong relationships with both artists.

Medikal, known for his close friendship with Shatta Wale, has collaborated with him on multiple hit songs like “Omo Ada (Remix)” and “Shatta Story.” Fameye also shares mutual respect with Medikal, having praised him in interviews for his work ethic and loyalty.

By publicly mentioning Medikal, Fameye was likely signaling that he doesn’t want a public feud he wants a face-to-face meeting to clear the air and restore good vibes.

Silence can mean many things—especially in the music industry. Let’s explore some possible reasons why Shatta Wale may have gone quiet toward Fameye.

1. Miscommunication and Social Media Pressure

In Fameye’s post, he said:

“His fans no dey gimme peace anytime I comment under his post.”

This line hints that fan behavior may be part of the problem. Shatta Wale’s fan base—the “Shatta Movement”—is one of the most active and vocal online communities in Ghana. They fiercely defend him and sometimes attack anyone they perceive as being against him.

If Fameye has been commenting under Wale’s posts and receiving backlash from fans, Wale might have decided to maintain silence to avoid adding fuel to potential fan drama.

2. Unintentional Distance

It’s also possible there’s no personal issue—just natural distance. The Ghanaian music industry moves fast. Artists travel, record, promote, and manage multiple projects. Sometimes, silence simply means both parties are busy and haven’t found time to reconnect.

However, because Fameye describes Wale as having gone “completely mute,” the silence feels intentional to him—which is why he’s seeking clarity.

3. Lingering Impact of Past Criticism

Even though the “247” issue happened years ago, public comments—especially critical ones—can linger emotionally. Fameye may have moved past it publicly, but perhaps subconsciously, he still associates Shatta Wale with that moment of humiliation. On the other hand, Shatta Wale might have assumed his comment was taken lightly and felt no need to address it again.

Shatta Wale is known for being unpredictable online. He can be expressive one moment and completely silent the next. He has previously gone off social media for weeks, only to return with major announcements or music drops. Fameye might simply be caught in one of Wale’s quiet cycles.

Since Fameye’s post surfaced, fans across X (Twitter), Facebook, and Instagram have flooded the comments section with mixed feelings.

• Some sympathize with Fameye, praising his humility and transparency.“Fameye is real for this. He’s not fighting, just wants clarity.”
• Others suggest he’s overreacting.“Not everyone needs to respond to your comments, bro. Focus on your art.”
• And of course, Shatta Movement fans quickly came to their king’s defense, insisting that Wale owes no one an explanation.“Wale be legend. He no get time for everybody.”

This diversity of reactions shows how deeply intertwined fan communities are with artists’ personal relationships. What could have been a simple misunderstanding now becomes a trending topic, sparking debates about loyalty, pride, and respect in the music industry.

Born Peter Famiyeh Bozah, Fameye has built a reputation as one of Ghana’s most soulful and thoughtful musicians. His lyrics often touch on themes of humility, perseverance, and gratitude. Songs like “Nothing I Get,” “Long Life” (featuring Kwesi Arthur), and “Praise” have earned him respect as an artist with depth and message.

Unlike many of his peers, Fameye rarely finds himself in controversies. His brand is rooted in authenticity and emotional expression. That’s why his recent post caught fans off guard it’s not typical of him to publicly express frustration. But that authenticity is also what makes him relatable; fans see his post as a genuine reflection of human feelings in an industry that often hides them.

On the other side, Shatta Wale (Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr.) is one of Ghana’s biggest music icons bold, outspoken, and always in the spotlight. He’s known for his high-energy performances, his business acumen, and his unfiltered approach to communication.

Wale’s relationships with other artists have always been a mix of love and tension. Over the years, he’s had public fallouts with Sarkodie, Stonebwoy, and even his own team members. But he’s also been quick to reconcile when needed, proving that beyond the drama, he values real relationships.

So Fameye’s situation isn’t entirely unique. It’s part of a pattern where artists sometimes fall out of Wale’s orbit—temporarily or permanently—depending on timing and communication.

What makes Fameye’s post powerful isn’t the potential “beef” it’s the humility behind it. Instead of attacking or gossiping, he’s asking for peace and reconnection. That approach sends an important message to the Ghanaian entertainment industry:

In a space where competition often breeds division, respect and communication still matter.

Ghana’s music scene thrives when artists collaborate and support each other. Shatta Wale’s influence can open doors for younger artists like Fameye, while Fameye’s songwriting talent can add emotional depth to collaborations. If they were to reconcile and work together, fans could witness something extraordinary.

1. Not Every Silence Means HateSometimes, artists just need space. Fameye’s openness is admirable, but fans should also remember that not all unspoken words are hostile.
2. Online Fan Wars Hurt More Than HelpFameye’s comment about Wale’s fans “not giving him peace” reveals how online fan behavior can affect artists emotionally. Real fans should build bridges, not burn them.
3. Respect in the Industry Is KeyFameye’s decision to address this issue respectfully, without insults, shows emotional maturity. Other artists can learn from that.
4. Collaboration Over CompetitionImagine a Shatta Wale–Fameye collaboration—Dancehall meets Afro-Soul. Their contrasting styles could create magic. But that can only happen if understanding replaces ego.

As of now, Shatta Wale hasn’t publicly responded to Fameye’s post. Whether he chooses to address it or not, one thing is certain Fameye’s courage to speak up has started an important conversation about communication and respect in the Ghanaian music space.

In a world where artists are often misunderstood, Fameye’s vulnerability stands out. He’s not chasing clout or drama; he’s chasing connection. And that, perhaps, is the most human thing an artist can do.
