My biggest regret in life is that I didn’t become a lawyer – Shatta Wale

Ghanaian dancehall sensation, Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr., popularly known as Shatta Wale, recently unveiled his most significant life regret, which revolves around not choosing a path in law.

Despite achieving remarkable success as a multi-award-winning musician and proudly bearing the title of “African Dancehall King,” Shatta Wale expressed a deep sense of unfulfillment in a candid interview with the BBC’s Stefania Okereke.

Shatta Wale admitted, “My most profound life regret is that I did not become a lawyer.”

He went on to reveal that he still entertains the idea of pursuing a legal career, saying, “I may consider studying law when I’ve amassed enough resources. While I acknowledge my success in music, my heart’s desire was to become a lawyer.”

He said he is still contemplating becoming a lawyer “when I make enough money. I know I’m a successful musician, but I wanted to be a lawyer.”

He added that he is a “nice guy” but unfortunately many do not see him so.
