Ghanaian rapper, Sarkodie has shared that his initial dream was to pursue a career in the medical field before his music journey took off.

The multi-talented artist mentioned that he also has a passion for arts, particularly painting and sketching.

In an interview with NandoLeaks, Sarkodie expressed his interest in becoming a doctor before his music aspirations became prominent.

He spoke about his diverse talents and the possibility of exploring other paths alongside his music career.

Sarkodie disclosed that during his early days as an artist, his mother gave him an ultimatum to either prove himself in music within a year or return to his education.

“First, I wanted to be a doctor, I do arts; I paint, I sketch. So definitely something towards that direction…” he told NandoLeaks when asked about his passion aside music.

Fortunately, luck was on his side, as his career began to flourish during that crucial year, sparing him from the need to choose between his passion for music and pursuing his academic goals.
