For many of the dancehall star's hardcore fans, his latest luxury car felt like a surreal moment considering his brush with Ghana's Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), which led to the confiscation of his yellow Lamborghini Urus in May 2025.

The new Mercedes is Shatta Wale's second luxury acquisition in just under a month. The Street Crown hitmaker bought a purple Lamborghini just a few days after his woes with EOCO began.

Why did EOCO seize Shatta Wale's car?

On August 20, the EOCO detained Shatta Wale following an investigation into his purchase of a yellow 2019 Lamborghini Urus.

Before he was detained, EOCO confiscated the vehicle, which has been linked to an FBI case in which the musician and a former officer of the National Signals Bureau are persons of interest.

A release by the security agency noted that the SM Boss' detention was in connection with several criminal investigations, with detectives probing his alleged involvement in money laundering and tax evasion.
