Mr Eazi talks about Shatta Wale's sold-out stadium concert
Mr Eazi in his recent interview confirmed that Shatta Wale charges an arm and a leg for his performance fees.
Realising Shatta Wale's charges, Mr Eazi said he bartered with the Ghanaian artiste, freely performing at his sold-out stadium concert in 2022 for him to return the favour.
According to Mr Eazi, this approach by artistes is their way of navigating each other's expensive performance requirements.
In the interview, he advanced that, promoters platforming thriving upcoming artistes instead of always packing shows with A-list artistes could also be an alternative.
