Saw this on another blog,
Before you begin reading, bare in
mind this is just an opinion. The
love is still there. We speak our
minds, we move on, we cant keep
issues within us, it will just kill us.
We got brother love for both of them
still.
This is not an attack to any of the
artistes please. It is my opinion
concerning the kind of hatred they
have developed for the media, whom
aside God, has been the basis of
their fame.
Yesterday, two of our most popular
artistes at the moment, Sarkodie and
Shatta Wale made the media
in Ghana a topic of discussion on
their lips.
These two superstars are refusing to
give back the level of respect we
have for them. Forgetting our radio,
tv and other platforms contributed to
the level of fame they both have.
Starting from Sarkodie, who released
his new song some hours ago
titled Free Press, the artiste
degraded the Ghanaian media,
saying the media in Ghana is not
supporting the stars we have. This
is a way to prove how ungrateful he
can be to the media after promoting
his songs, music videos, granting
interviews, writing for him and all
that.
Most people believe Sarkodie who
was one of the most respected acts
in the industry has changed ever
since he started rolling with Shatta
Wale. It is obvious that
the Sarkodie we used to know some
years ago during the time he was
hanging out with Obrafour has
submerged to the level of Shatta
Wale.
Sarkodie doesnt mind paying a
bodyguard from Ghana to L.A all in
the name of branding for BET and
yet he refuses to pay big bloggers
and great Publicists like Ameyaw
Debrah, , to mention but few to
follow him to events and cover up
everything he does over there.
The big question is,
Is Sarkodie expecting these writers
to book a flight and follow him
to L.A when no one including
himself has invited them to be
there? Even a very popular
blogger Linda Ikeji, wont go
toL.A just to cover BET for Wizkid,
Davido, Ice Prince and the rest of
her Naija Celebrities all at her own
expenses.
Truth is, a good and a popular
musician like Sarkodie should by
now be with a very good PR who
will follow him to such events. But
the fact is, he doesnt have any level
of veneration for the media
in Ghana, so he sees that to be a
balderdash thing for him to do
nevertheless he expects that same
media to follow him to every place
he goes. As if he is the one in
charge of our monthly bills. Or as if
anytime he wins an award he
organizes a drink up party to show
appreciation for our tweets, hype
and all that.
He does none of this. We dont even
need it because most of us including
myself dont have time for such
things.
And in return to what we have done
for him so far, he makes us feel
stupid just because he drunk the
drug of fame.
Sarkodie woke up from the dream of
a celebrity and without noticing God
has been using the bloggers, djs,
presenters,journalists,writers, etc
who work tirelessly to get his fans
updated all the time, he and his
newly found lover, Shatta
Wale wouldnt have been popularly
known by the world.
They shouldn’t forget this, none of
them would be widely known with
just their facebook and twitter
pages.
At least you can do mention the
names of media guys, sites or
houses directly when you have a
problem with them but not to
generalize your accusations.
Sarkodie is a failure to the media
in Ghana. We are very much
disappointed in him and we hope he
is fully aware of what he said.
Now to one artiste by name Shatta
Wale, who was arrested and warned
by the police for using his local
convoy from Ghana to disturb
in USA, he doesnt understand why
the media talked about it, so as the
usual, he rewarded us with his most
dearest word, PU**Y.
For Shatta Wale, i wont say much
because he doesnt deserve any
letters from me. I would rather use
those words to draft an article
for Tonto Dikeh who will at least
tweet my stories to her followers
and in addition, attracting more
traffic and getting me online revenue
from my website.
Shatta Wale should keep on with his
impractical attitude. At least now he
has someone who is on his
level, Sarkodie. The two should keep
dissing the media and before they
will notice the mistake that has
caused them, we will be there no
more to listen to them.
They chase you when they need
you, they see you as a fool when
they start enjoying fame.
I quote Paa Kwasi
One thing that has motivated me a
lot in life is, Mike Tyson’s life, dude
actually made over $300Million, he
was making over $30Million per
fight even if he lost but later on, he
lost all of that MONEY! When I see
people (esp. Ghanaians and
Africans) stunting and acting like
they run the world coz of some lil
money they have, I just shock! SMH
… especially the popular people!
Charley, there is nothing new under
the sun, those u shit on today will
be the ones u will cry to when ur
DOWN!
I am a fan of Sarkodie!!
As Sarkodie said – Just spoke ma
mind…
