The internet has stood still for the Dancehall King, Shatta Wale once again. After waiting for what seems like forever for the release of the song which was scheduled for today, Friday-July 19, it has finally dropped.
Beyonce assembled an array of stars, including several top African artists, with Shatta Wale the only Ghanaian artists who got featured, as opposed to seven stars from Nigeria.
Beyonce says the album features many acts from Africa because she wants it to be about authentic music from the continent.
“I wanted to make sure we found the best talent from Africa and not just use some of the sound or my own interpretation of it,” she told CNN.
See below for Wale’s verse:
Verse 2: Shatta Wale]
Every king be ruler, be ruler, yeah
Everybody all dey conquer, yeah
Every king be stronger, yeah
King to rule them longer, yeah
Remember who you are, ooh
Real king always win, oh
Give up your bread, oh
I’ll show your people my love
It’s time already, I say it’s time already
The line already, I say, line already
Only you got the remedy, I say you got the remedy
Shine your body, shine your body
