Some fans of dancehall colossus, Shatta Wale are unhappy because he was not nominated in 2017\u2019s Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards.<\/p>\n
For the past few years, Shatta Wale has churned out numerous hit songs and has attracted a cult following that translates into the patronage of his craft, but he has not made it to the BET Awards yet.<\/p>\n
While some have blamed this on sheer hate on the artiste by industry gurus, who may be voters or selection committee members of the awards, others have attributed it to Shatta Wale\u2019s neglect for quality production and international \u2018connections.\u2019<\/p>\n
But the self- acclaimed dancehall king is unfazed by these talks. A day after news broke that Stonebwoy had been nominated in the Best International Act Africa category in the 2017 BET Awards, he took to Facebook to react to the debate.<\/p>\n
