Popular broadcaster and DJ, Andy Dosty, has revealed that dancehall artist Shatta Wale once showed interest in signing rapper King Paluta to his record label.

Dosty said Shatta Wale was impressed by King Paluta’s performance on their 2020 song, Ahodwo Las Vegas, and began discussions about bringing him on board.

"The person who wanted to sign King Paluta was Shatta Wale. He really wanted to sign him at a time when nobody knew him," Andy Dosty disclosed during an appearance on the Asetena Pa podcast hosted by Akoto Mansa.

Veteran presenter Andy Dosty shared that he once had an in-depth conversation with Shatta Wale about plans to support King Paluta’s music career.

"I remember spending about an hour with Shatta Wale talking about King Paluta—how to shape his brand and the investments needed," he said.

Interestingly, Andy revealed that King Paluta had no idea such talks were going on behind the scenes.

Today, King Paluta has become a major name in Ghana’s music scene and is one of the top nominees for Artiste of the Year at the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards, which takes place on May 3.
