Ghanaian dancehall sensation Shatta Wale has announced the release of his highly anticipated new single, “African Mandiba,” set to drop on Friday, January 17, 2025.
This track is a heartfelt tribute to Jamaican dancehall legend, Vybz Kartel, following the unforgettable performance Shatta Wale had in Kingston, Jamaica, where he shared the stage with the incarcerated icon.
In a teaser video shared across his social media, Shatta Wale gave a sneak peek of “African Mandiba,” sending his followers into a frenzy.
The song is a reflection of the powerful moments Shatta experienced in Jamaica and his deep respect for Vybz Kartel, who publicly crowned him the “King of African Dancehall” during the epic performance at Kingston’s National Stadium.
The event was monumental, with 35,000 fans in attendance, marking a new chapter in Shatta Wale’s international journey.
Shatta’s time in Jamaica has already paid major dividends. His performance at the National Stadium strengthened his relationship with Kartel and helped elevate his global profile.
He’s already building strong ties with other top-tier Jamaican artists like Skillibeng and Popcaan. And it’s paying off—his track “On God” charted on the Billboard a few weeks after the Jamaica performance, proving that Shatta Wale is no longer just a local sensation but a global force in the dancehall scene.
Now, all eyes are on “African Mandiba.” The title itself is powerful, referencing Nelson Mandela, a true African icon, as Shatta Wale pays tribute to both African and Jamaican heroes. The song is a perfect mix of both cultures, and fans can expect nothing less than an anthem.
The snippet has already sparked a storm of reactions from fans, and their comments speak volumes about the hype surrounding this release.
