Mr. Logic, the Chief Executive Officer of Red Panther Music, shared his repeated yet unsuccessful attempts to feature Sarkodie in some of his compositions. Despite sending several verses to the rapper, Mr. Logic's efforts were met with silence, echoing a familiar narrative among his peers.

This situation isn't unique to Mr. Logic. Other notable Ghanaian artists, including Samini, Kwaw Kese, Edem, and even Nigerian singer Yemi Alade, have voiced similar experiences. These artists recount how their attempts to collaborate with Sarkodie remained unfulfilled, painting a picture of an almost unreachable dream when it comes to working with the celebrated rapper.

Mr. Logic, driven by his ambition, even considered the option of financial compensation to secure a feature with Sarkodie. Yet, despite his willingness to pay, his dream of a collaboration remained just that – a dream, elusive and unattained. This scenario underscores a wider sentiment among artists who admire Sarkodie's talent but find collaboration with him an elusive goal.

In a discussion with Andy Dosty on Hitz 103. 9 FM shared on Twitter, he said: “I was ready to go the business way. I was ready to make an offer but Angel told me Sarkodie does not care about the money. I approached Angel and told him I was ready to pay for a feature from Sarkodie. I was ready to pay 10,000 dollars. I called DJ Mensah and informed him about my decision. DJ Mensah told me that the money won’t be enough but I should send him the song so he could forward it to Sarkodie. I did that and followed up on the song and till now, the song never came. The songs were very good”.

“It hurts. I am not an industry kid; I am an industry guru. I have been doing this work for twenty years both in Ghana and abroad. I am not a kid. I was here when Sarkodie came into the limelight. I know Sarkodie so I have every right to feel this way”, he added.
