Beyoncé collaborates with shatta wale & other African artistes on new album “The Lion King: The gift”.
The Queen Bey has just released the details of her upcoming album The Lion King: The Gift which features several top African musicians across the continent. And Ghana’s own Shatta Wale is featured on it! How's that for MAJOR news! Lit🔥🔥. His collaboration with Beyoncé on the album is titled “ MY POWER”.
Naturally Shatta Wale fans are not taking the news calmly at all and have lit up Twitter with the news. Even his haters are reluctantly tweeting out due praises.
How on earth did Shatta Wale keep silent over such a major career boosting collaboration?? He must have been bursting at the seams! That NDA must have been tight! We no go hear anything anymore🤣🤣.
Brands of which he's an ambassador are already congratulating him on the collaboration .
“ “ Each song was written to reflect the film’s storytelling that gives the listener a chance to imagine their own imagery, while listening to a new contemporary interpretation.”
It was important that the music was not only performed by the most interesting and talented artists but also produced by the best African producers. Authenticity and heart were important to me.””
Will Shatta Wale now actually win a BET Award now that the Queen 🐝 has given him an uptick? What do you think?
Other African popstars are Nigeria’s Mr. Eazi, Tiwa Savage, Tekno, Yemi Alade, WizKid and Burna Boy. Cameroonian artist Salatiel appears alongside Beyoncé and Pharrell on Water. And from South Africa Busiswa and Moonchild Sanelly.
The album which will be released this Friday 19th July will be available on Spotify and Apple Music.
