The musician, whose real name is Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jr, described an intense altercation with his father, Mr Charles Nii Armah Mensah Snr, also known as Shatta Capo.
The disagreement, which Shatta Wale detailed, resulted in his father's decision to destroy his bed and other personal items, and he was later instructed to leave the family home.
