Dancehall singer Shatta Wale has bemoaned the lack of seriousness attached to such arts as music, appealing that it be regarded as a proper career as it could be very lucrative should it be taken seriously.

He also submitted other examples including Asamoah Gyan and boxer Floyd Mayweather to buttress his point in a passionate Facebook post recently.

In the post, he also calls for the end to deception of upcoming acts who are considering a career in music.
