Shatta Wale Finally Receives Plaque For Surpassing One Million YouTube Subscribers
- Shatta Wale has joined the list of Ghanaian artists with over one million subscribers on YouTube
- His manager flaunted the official acknowledgement on social media in celebration of Shatta Wale's accolade
- Fans thronged the comments section to congratulate the Ghanaian artist for his strides on the platform
Ghanaian musician Charles Nii Armah, aka Shatta Wale, surpassed one million YouTube subscribers in January this year.
Eight months after Shatta Wale hit the milestone, the platform has reportedly sent him a plaque celebrating his strides.
Only a few Ghanaian artists have reached a million subscribers so far. Sarkodie hit the enviable milestone last year and became the first Ghanaian musician to do so.
Shatta Wale followed suit about half a year later ahead of Black Sherif, who became the youngest to hit the mark.
Ghanaian songstress Gyakie and Shatta Wale's rival Stonebwoy, with 748,000 and 727,000 subscribers, respectively, are among the candidates tipped to join the club next.
Shatta Wale's manager, Sammy Flex took to social media to hail the artist and his fanbase for the enviable record. He shared his thoughts after flaunting the plaque online, saying:
"This is for Shatta Wale’s YouTube page for clocking one million subscribers. My man has been hiding it somewhere in his room until I went to his apartment last weekend. Congratulations to all Shatta Movement fans globally for making this happen and kudos to our boss Shatta Wale for always working harder than even expected. The works bring the results we always enjoy. #Safa #ShattaMusic."
