Shatta Movement Empire boss, Shatta Wale has sacked five of his close ‘friends’ from his camp.

Shatta Wale in a post on Facebook asked his fans to be ware of Stone, Bone, Blade, Good Over Evil and pope skinny as they will never be part of his camp again.

They will never be part of my Journey anymore .. Anything they come out to say is Fabricated .. God guide me and my militants ??????”

This is not the first time Pope Skinny, in particular, has been suspended or sacked from the Shatta movement family.

Music Groups Limit Your Creativity – Captain Planet

Hiplife artiste, Captain Planet talks about being in a musical group. Moreover, according to him, being in a group limits one’s creative abilities.

“Being in a group limits your creativity in a lot of ways; it is like being in a family, it is not all about you. Whatever decision you take you need to consider the others.

“You cannot spend all your time on a song. It has to be shared because everyone has to prove his or her ability. You cannot do a lot of the things you want to do because of this.

“I may want to do a rap on some portions on a song but you can’t because the other members may think it will not help. You may want to put some guitar strings somewhere but the group says no etc and you have to deal with it.

“But when you are alone, you can do all the things that you like because after all you do not need anyone’s opinion. You can bring on board all the creative ideas you have in your box and do all the acrobatics on the song, it is all yours“ 

Captain Planet about creative differences in a group

However, Captain Planet admitted that being in a group also empowers you.

“There are good sides too; you learn from each other, exchange ideas and all but the truth still remains that the way you do things as an individual is not the same with a group because it is not all about you anymore”

Furthermore, he spoke about his own group. He hinted that fans of 4X4 should keep their fingers crossed for something great.

“Prince is currently in school in the States, Coded has found a new love that he is concentrating on and I have other businesses I need to focus on so we are all occupied at the moment but we are working on something that will blow the minds of Ghanaians. They should keep up the love for me as a solo act and my group 4×4.”

Furthermore, he stated that it wasn’t a thing to affect his journey to become a big name in the Ghana Music Industry.

The Afrobeats singer made the admission that, the signing of another budding act onto the label is something that made them a stronger label. This is because of the different shades they all bring to play for the label. He made these revelations on the ‘Uncut Show’.

The host questioned his feelings if Stonebwoy and Black Ceddi focus all their energy and resources on Okailey Verse. However, he stated that he will be totally cool if the ‘godfathers’ decide to focus on O.V 100%.

He stressed that he is not selfish. He had the same attention when they signed him. Therefore, there is no reason why there should be a problem now if the label wants to do same for a new signee.
