Self-acclaimed King of Dancehall, Shatta Wale, showed great remorse by going on his knees to apologise after he arrived late for a scheduled interview together with his colleague musician Medikal.
Shatta Wale was booked to be at the studio at 8 am with his colleague Medikal but they both failed to get there on time.
