Ghanaian Reggae and Dancehall sensation, Samini, has once again criticized rapper Sarkodie, characterizing him as disrespectful and two-faced.
Samini expressed his disappointment with Sarkodie's conduct, particularly in the context of collaborations with more seasoned artists.
In an appearance on The Day Show hosted by Berla Mundi, Samini disclosed that he had approached Sarkodie for a potential collaboration but found the rapper's response to be unsatisfactory. When probed further about this issue, Samini asserted that Sarkodie had deliberately evaded discussing the matter.
“You can’t take Samini lightly anyhow,” he asserted during the interview. “Until he shows remorse and comes to me to say, be like the way I do Badman ‘I be like ano try, Badman vex and come and make ano say, ano try,” he said.
In the conversation with Berla Muni, he continued that “until then he and I we no be cool….He is a two-faced person who will make the public believe I don’t know what I am saying on Twitter when I actually know what I am saying and then I come and ask you questions and then you can’t answer“.
Samini emphasised the significance of older artists in the field being respected, particularly by upcoming artists. Young artists should not be disrespected, especially when established artists are looking to collaborate, he wanted to convey to them.
“I want young artists to know that it’s not okay to be disrespectful. When you’re asked about something, don’t try to mislead people and make them think the complainer is making things up,” Samini explained.
“I responded to him based on how he treated me before, which made me doubt his respect for legends like myself. Having a ‘blue tick’ doesn’t mean I should assume you respect me after you’ve played games with me, despite my quick response to your requests.“
This public dispute stems from Samini's earlier complaints that Sarkodie had ignored his request for collaboration on the 2021 Burning-EP. When Sarkodie was questioned about this in a radio interview, he brushed the issue off.
Samini mentioned that he gave his free contribution to the song "Love Rock," but when he needed Sarkodie's assistance, he did not receive it.
