Ghanaian rap heavyweight, King Paluta, has finally addressed the heated remarks made by media personality DJ Slim, who recently questioned the rapper’s credibility and nomination for the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA).
Speaking on Nhyira FM’s Entertainment Power, hosted by MelvinDaEnigma, King Paluta said “DJ Slim messed up with that comment. It was loose talk.
“You can’t discredit someone’s hard work and success over category promotion.”
DJ Slim’s comments sent shockwaves through the music industry, reigniting debates about media bias and the credibility of award schemes.
Some fans applauded Paluta’s calm but direct clapback, calling it a “masterclass in maturity.”
But that wasn’t all.
In an emotional turn during the interview, the rapper behind hits “Yahitte” and “Aseda”, opened up about the painful journey that led to his breakout.
“I nearly quit,” he confessed. “The rejections, the financial stress—it was overwhelming. But every delay was a blessing in disguise.”
His new album, “Give Time Some Time,” is being described as a raw and reflective anthem of hope, echoing his message of resilience.
“You can’t win in life if you don’t go through hardships. Nothing good comes easy,” said Paluta.
Listeners flooded the station’s lines and social media, praising both the artist and the Entertainment Power team for delivering one of the most honest and electric interviews of the year.
As the dust settles, King Paluta’s name continues to rise; not just as a lyrical powerhouse, but as a voice of patience, perseverance, and now, reckoning.
