It’s like winning a Grammy when you perform with Vybz Kartel – Shatta Wale
The Ghanaian dancehall performer Shatta Wale claims that sharing the stage with the legendary Jamaican dancehall musician Vybz Kartel is the equivalent of taking home a Grammy Award, which is perhaps the most coveted honor in the music business.
“It has been a beautiful experience; this is a dream come true for Shatta Movement fans,” Shatta Wale told Joynews upon his homecoming from Jamaica. My dancehall musical career is well known, and sharing the stage with Vybz Kartel is an absolute dream.
In response to the significance of his Freedom Street performance for his career, Shatta Wale went on, “For me, getting Vybz Kartel’s endorsement is like winning a Grammy. My greatest accomplishment is getting Vybz’s support and performing with him because he is a well-known and beloved artist on a global scale.”
The only Ghanaian performer at the widely reported “Freedom Street” performance, which was hosted by the legendary Jamaican dancehall artist Vybz Kartel, was Shatta Wale.
Following his recent release from prison, Vybz Kartel performed live for the first time in almost 14 years on December 31, 2024, at Kingston, Jamaica’s National Stadium.
