In his annals, he is known to receive 5 awards from Ghana Music Awards 2010 with his maiden album, ‘Makye’. Known in Achimota Preparatoty School’s register as Michael Owusu Addo and in showbiz as Sarkodie, he has become a brand name when thoughts of rap flash. On the average, this rap demon, Sarkodie, releases a song every 4 weeks. His rap lyrics are always at the acme in every new song.
After the release of the 18 packed song Rapperholic Album, Mr. Owusu (Sarkodie) has released a song which features Mohammed. Titled ‘Issues’, the song unveils the rappers journalism prowess, a talent which is unknown of him. With a great rhythm, more of a dance groove which will really be complimented with azonto dance, Sarkodie in his usual timing charms gave reports to his fans of what is happening in the showbiz in Ghana. Names like Bola Ray, Abeiku Santana, Kwame Farkye, Nana Akuffo Addo and even the President, Atta Mills were not spared in his reportage.
One issue which has caught the attention of many who have listened to the song is his rap line which goes “y3se Confidence ne Agya Koo k) out” translated in English as “They say Confidence is going out with Agya Koo”. Many believe this to be very true since he is a ‘classmate’ in the showbiz industry to these celebrities. As to where the Tema born bread rapper heard this tittle-tattle from, it will only be great to hear it directly from the Duncwills Entertainment signed artist. Efforts to reach Sarkodie and his management to give this reporter detail of it proved futile.
