Ghanaian dancehall superstar, Charles Nii Armah Mensah, popularly known as Shatta Wale, has fired back at his media critics.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, Shatta Wale argued that he is far more successful in life than any of his critics, both in the old and new media space.
He said due to his wealth, status, achievements, and influence, he is not ready to listen to criticisms or advice from people less than he is.
"Whether you are whatever in the media or in the entertainment sector, please, don't try and advice me because you all of you don't drive Rolls-Royces. We all started this job, why haven't you bought a Rolls-Royce?"

"Why haven't you bought a house in East Legon? Why haven't you bought houses in Cantonments? Why haven't you bought a house at the Airport?" Shatta Wale queried.
Shatta Wale said his critics should apologise to him because their punditry and advice has not led to any progress in the Ghanaian entertainment industry.
The popular dancehall star also lamented the media's tendency to take his words and twist them in order to service their agendas against him.
The 'On God' hitmaker has consistently feuded with the Ghanaian media throughout the years.
