Nigerian stand-up comedian Basketmouth says he was humbled when Ghanaian musician Shatta Wale did not demand money when working with him for his next music project.<\/p>\n
Speaking on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, Basketmouth said that although he had known the \u2018On God\u2019 hitmaker they had never had a proper conversation and thus was taken aback by his generosity.<\/p>\n
The stand-up comedian told the host, Andy Dosty, that Shatta Wale, who is expected on his next album, offered his talent for free with no charge whatsoever.<\/p>\n
\u201cI told him I was working on an album and I\u2019d love for him to jump on. I sent the song to him and he loved it. He was done with it in a few hours and sent his verse and he nailed it,\u201d Basketmouth, born Bright Okpocha, said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe guy said something interesting. He said it is for free, I don\u2019t need to pay him royalty or anything. Take it, it is yours. Nobody has ever done that before.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added that this action coming from a Ghanaian \u201cmade me very humble.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shatta Wale will not be the first Ghanaian artiste Basketmouth has worked with though.<\/p>\n
In 2021 he released a music project with Falz and Highlife musician Kwabena Kwabena named Ghana Jollof while promoting his show of the same name.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Basketmouth is currently in Ghana for his much anticipated \u2018Unprovoked\u2019 show, scheduled for April 8.<\/p>\n
