The dancehall musician, who recently released his highly anticipated SAFA album, called out the youth for failing to support him whenever he raised concerns about many issues in Ghana.

The Killa Ji Mi hitmaker said that many of the youth were unconcerned, kept silent and accused him of being jealous of his colleagues whenever he criticised the stakeholders in the entertainment industry.

Shatta Wale noted that the youth had been misled by some individuals who put their selfish gains above the betterment of the country. He warned the youth not to involve him in the ongoing advocacy campaign on social media.

The SM Boss added that, unlike the protestors who did not take their protests seriously, he is untouchable in the entertainment industry because of his outspoken personality.
