Entertainment pundit, Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo has ruled out any impossibility about Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale’s ability to fill the O2 Arena for a concert.
Arnold who is undoubtful about the artiste’s capability and experience believes Wale can only achieve that by collaborating with the appropriate promoters in the UK.
According to Arnold, although Shatta Wale has a huge fan base in the UK and other places worldwide, being able to sell out the O2 Arena goes beyond just his popularity and fan base.
“Wale has been in the business for over 20 years, he is also popular in the UK, Dubai and other places but you see it goes beyond the praises and popularity we see. He has the catalogue and sword.
“What he has to do now is to ensure he does not use one promoter. There is one promoter in the UK who can make that possible and that’s Live Nation, he can walk up to Live Nation and discuss his pedigree with them and for his managers to prove to Live Nation that this is what he can do,” he said on Onua FM on May 4.
He stressed that with collaboration with other promoters in the UK like Akwaaba and Allonia, Wale can easily sell out the O2 Arena.
Arnold added that for this to be achieved, the Management of Shatta Wale must be able to prove his worth and ability to the promoters and be willing to work with them.
His comment comes at the back of rapper Medikal’s sold out concert at the O2 Arena on Friday, May 3.
The artiste pulled up an enthralling performance and was able to sell out the arena as he was accompanied by performances from other artistes like Shatta Wale, Sarkodie, Jay Bhad, Sister Derby and Malcolm Nuna.
