Former SM Militant Joint 77 Alleges Shatta Wale Secretly Filmed Beyoncé Collaboration

Joint 77 opened up about a betrayal he says occurred within the SM Militant crew when Shatta Wale traveled abroad to shoot a Beyoncé feature without informing his teammates. Speaking on Max TV, the former SM Militant member explained that he was still in Ghana eating with Shatta Wale on the day of departure, yet Shatta Wale boarded his flight solo and kept the mission completely hidden. Joint 77 only discovered the project after Shatta Wale encountered problems abroad and reached out for support. He said Shatta Wale feared that full disclosure might have distracted from or risked the lucrative collaboration. Joint 77 expressed deep hurt because he had invested genuine personal trust in Shatta Wale, viewing their bond as more than professional. He recalled the group watching Shatta Wale leave with no word on their destination or plans. Later, Shatta Wale contacted him from overseas explaining the challenges he faced during the shoot. This episode contributed to Joint 77's growing sense that his loyalty was not reciprocated. He also pointed to a broader trend where Shatta Wale performed songs they recorded together without involving other group members in live shows.
