Before
you start reading this Article,know that,I'm not trying to tarnish the
image of sarkodie, neither am I writing this to gain public
attention,instead its just an opinion that I would love to share with
you guys.besides,everyone has a freedom to his or her opinion.
Well as a
media person and a passionate promoter of good music,I've been studying
the best African hip hop Artiste for this year and BET Award
winner,Michael Owusu Addo,who we all know as Sarkodie for a couple of
years now.His life style,lyrical content,Attitude and above all,his
musical strategy.For over some years now,I've come to conclusion that
Sarkodie is the most strategic Artiste in Ghana.No wonder he's been the
master key of Ghanaian rap music for a long period of time before the
Dancehall commando,shatta wale took over.Now a strong investigation I've
made on sarkodie proves to me particularly that,sarkodie has a major
reason why all of a sudden He's come to fall deeply in love with the
leader of Shatta Movement,shatta Wale;that particular reason is why i
think he's pretending to love shatta wale.Why am I saying that?
Sarkodie started his music career in Tema,community nine.As a studio rat,he use to move from one studio to the other with R2bees,Dr.cryme,stay jay,Yaa Pono,Yaw siki and most of the Artistes in Tema you know.Frankly speaking,he actually got massive support from the Refuse to be broke Nation(R2Bees),which aid him to penetrate through the Ghanaian music industry with his first single,"Baby",by which he featured Mugeez.By then,R2bees were the talk of town and the best musical group to be presice.
A few month after sarkodie's first hit single,he dogged most of his Tema guys he began with from the scratch and started rolling with the musical group,Skillions;El,jay soe,joey B,stargo,jay Town,Scientific and the likes, when one of the members of the group,Bra Kevin made a tremendous wave to overthrow R2Bees with his hit song,"three headed beast".Sarkodie got the chance to spread his lyrical vibes via some parts of West Africa when he featured one of the guys from skillions,El with his second hit song,"you go kill me".After his second hit song,which derived the slogan,"you know say money no bi problem",hardly would you hear any collaborations of sarkodie with most of the Artistes from Tema,especially,those he began his music career with.This strategy made him an ungrateful and a hypocrite personality in the sight of most Artistes in Tema.sarkodie,since then,won a couple of awards and has been the mighty name we know,when it comes to rap and Ghanaian music in general before the Dance hall commando took over
Apparently,Shatta Wale is the talk of town in Ghana now.who doesn't know shatta Wale? Even,my 2year old nephew can recite most of his songs from A to Z.The fastest rapper is now in love with the Dancehall commando.what happened to R2bees and skillion?hmmm!
Just last year,sarkodie did a mix-tape,which he titled "Shatta Wale".A song which goes like.
:"sha shatta Wale! Huh!,sha shatta Wale! Huh!" Remember that song?It didnt end there,Sarkodie also managed to be featured on shatta Wale's "Dancehall commando"song after he invited shatta to his family house in Tema community nine just a few months ago.Recently he released one of his latex songs which created a little misunderstanding between him and some section of the media,"Free Press" after his new lover,shatta Wale made a statement that,"Ghanaian media is the most foolish I've ever seen in my life".
Now here's the paragraph where I share my Opinion.Sarkodie has come to realize that,shatta wale is progressing in the music industry due to his negative deeds.there's no day that you won't read bad stories about him;today he diss Samini,tomorrow he insults chatter house,it goes on and on and will always go on because that's shatta wale's strategy he normally uses to be famous.
Now,If you've been studying sarkodie from Adam,you will realize that,the humble and calm sarkodie we use to know has changed ever since he started mingling with the Dancehall commando.I can boldly say that,all this while,sarkodie has been faking to love shatta wale because,you and I know he's not as influential as he use be on the ghetto youth in Nima,Fadama,Newtown,zongo,Asha
I know 60 percentage of sarkodie's die hard fans will raise an attack against me after reading this,thinking I hate him,but I'm a reporter and its my job to report what I've been investigating for some years now.
Now my advise to Sarkodie;he musst know that some percentage of his fans love him because he's calm and humble.Now,if he should convert his branding to that of shatta Wale,who always create misunderstanding between some Artises,the media and show organizers,he might loose some of his fans.Already,his new song ''press release'' has made him loose the respect he use to gain from some section of the Ghanaian media. As for shatta Wale,I think Sarkodie is close to accomplishing his mission of getting close to him because,Sarkodie's new song.''Inflation'' has caught the nations attention now and I'm sure he will soon be swapping the awards with that great song.
