Blakk Rasta has detailed the events of his fallout with Shatta Wale.

Shatta Wale had earlier labelled Blakk Rasta a hypocrite for only playing one of his songs out of the seven he had given to him.

Blakk Rasta has now explained that it was never so and that Shatta Wale is just being a liar and an ungrateful person.

According to Blakk Rasta, he helped Shatta Wale find his feet after Shatta Wale had begged him to help, so he cannot understand why Shatta Wale is deliberately disrespecting him.

He claimed that he was responsible for finding Shatta Wale a place to stay, and a sponsorship from Shatta Wale's uncle back when he was still known as Bandana. 

“…one day he (Shatta Wale) called me and said [listen to Blakk Rasta, there’s one of my uncles he’s so rich… he loves you. Right now, I’m suffering, I don’t even have anywhere to sleep; nobody wants to play my music, nothing is happening for me." He said while speaking in an interview on Kingdom FM.

“If you can help me, go with me to my uncle and talk to him, I’m sure he’ll be able to help me…] that was the time he released a song called ‘Musician politricksters’… so he came over to me and I went over with him to his uncle and true to his words his uncle was all over me, so happy. He’s called Uncle Rocky…

“And he gave him money to produce his music, his album and even gave him a place to sleep… after about a year he called me and said his uncle had kicked him out of the house… I called the uncle and he said he was over there and all the drug addicts were coming to the house and I didn’t like it…” he told the host.

Blakk Rasta then revealed how his relationship took a negative turn when Shatta Wale brought him about seven of his songs to be air-played but he resorted to play only one because he didn’t enjoy the rest.“…he brought me some songs... a lot of songs, they were about six, seven songs. And I liked just one song; and that was ‘Mama,’… which I used to play regularly.

“I wasn’t hearing from him. All I heard was he granted interview…. And that was where he said that [Black Rasta and the rest are hypocrites… I gave him seven songs and he’s played only one song].

“I was like wow, is this how ungrateful you can be, why did you not use this opportunity to tell them that I matched you all the way to your uncle. He gave you all the money and I never even took a penny from you. I drove you all the way back, then you didn’t have a car…”
