Shatta Wale has made known that he wanted to be a lawyer while growing up.

The legendary dance artiste said this Monday, November 2 when speaking on 3FM’s mid-morning show Urban Blend.

"After school, I wanted to be a lawyer,” he said, adding: “My dad also wanted me to be a lawyer. After school, I told him I wanted to do music for about two years.”

"When I started as Bandana, I realised that it was not going well. I was not getting money from shows and my record label too was bad. So I took some time to rebrand and come again.”

The controversial artiste had earlier mixed up his definition of gospel musicians in his interview on Hitz FM, Friday.

“The gospel artistes themselves, they don’t believe in God. Because if they believed in God, the things God can do…”

"God is the type of man that when you ask Him to do something now, he’s already started working on it. Patience is man’s problem… So if gospel artistes would believe and say ‘God, help me; let my song blow and cross borders’… The God you believe in, let’s hear his name in your songs instead of those innuendo lyrics.” he had initially said.

A statement which he sharply contradicted by saying: "I want to work with all of them. I can’t choose one because they’re all of God and they believe in God.”

“People are giving certain perceptions about how a musician should be like,” he noted. “What I’m doing is gospel. I’m preaching about God. It’s a covenant I have with God. So gospel artistes shouldn’t see as a secular artist who shows his boxer shots when swimming in his pool in his own house,”.

The artiste is however back in circulation doing interviews as normal.
