Rapper Ablekuma Nana Lace

Entertainer Ablekuma Nana Lace has hailed Reggae/Dancehall star Shatta Wale as a figure whose advice and story has inspired him to never give up personally and professionally.

"I didn't just start doing music. I've been doing it for a long time," he said speaking to Nana Romeo on Okay FM.

"This is why Shatta Wale is forever our inspiration because when you look at his hustle from those days and how he is now broken through, we are not giving up anytime soon."

The rapper said he most admired Shatta Wale for "not giving up" and "advising me during those days to press on and not to give up".

He fondly observed the success and prominence Wale was enjoying currently, after years hardwork. 

"I love that die-hard spirit of his," Lace emphasised.

Romeo wondered, apart from the admiration, if Nana Lace dislike anything about Wale.

"The profane words," he said, noting "due respect".

Lace explained it was concerning for his role model to use unprintable words especially since "he is raising a child" and "content on social media is permanent".

"I like everything about him except the profane insults targetting people's mothers," he doubled down.

"If he tones it down, for the impressionable children - someone could even use that to [bully] his children, including his son Majesty. So we [plead] with him to tone it down a bit."

Ablekuma Nana Lace who is known for his humours sing-rap freestyles said he was more than ready to say this to Wale to his face "through playful means, and I know he will receive the message in good faith".

In conclusion, he pleaded with "the big king Wale" to consider his stardom and influence on children "and take it easy with the profanity".
