Sarkodie has come under serious attack for a line in his rap in Kurl Songx’s Jennifer Lomotey, referring to Jennifer Lomotey as a Krobo girl with beads around her waist who Okomfo Anokye has cursed with fornication.
But Kaywa, the man who produced the song, says Sakordie has told him he would be unwise to diss any Krobo girl.
Kaywa is not only the producer of the song but the one who together with Kurl Songx decided to feature Sarkodie.
In an interview with Onua FM Saturday, he said Sakordie was rather praising Krobo girls. Kaywa again stated that he has spoken to Sarkodie and he said “I’m married to a Krobo girl, I have a daughter who has the same blood running through her and I will be unwise to diss Krobo girls”.
Kaywa said “if people are affected, then as a wise person, we will reconsider [the song]”. “That’s what we are doing as management now.
Management is meeting right after this, and we will work out something appealing not just to the chief but to everybody who has an issue with the song.” Kaywa further stated that there is an edited version which is going to be out soon, but he can’t retrieve what people may have on their phones and audio devices.
Esther Maseyo Azu, the convener of a Krobo advocacy group Kloma Hengme and Heritage Association, said “we can’t force Sarkodie to retract, but as a rational human being, he should know better and apologise”.
“We want all Ghanaians to understand that we are registering our displeasure about his statements, our paramount chief Nene Sackitey II has given us his support and he has officially cautioned him to retract and apologise.
If he doesn’t, I can’t disclose the next line of action our elders are going to take against Sarkodie.”

Using insulting words to commend someone is "Sarcasm" .... Mind you. Maybe because it Rhymes with your name, you decided to be 'Sarcastic'
You are rather not growing up here cos all that u wrote got no bit sense in it so dont just spew out gabag3s sif u dont know what to say. The guy was praising them but people with low IQ's like u will think like a phool and aside that who told u sark is an ashanti, go and come back again and stop the phoolish comments u just posted cos u will wish to be an asanti bt u never will and if u must know ashanti;s are always proud to talk about their tribes no matter what
This is how typical ashanties are, they are highly tribalistic and segregate in the Minds...... they say northerners are animals, ewes full of vudus and full of evil, Ga people are like this and like that , always deaminng peopple of other tribes, it is terrible and it must be killed, they even say Bonos are villager ,Krobo women are ***barred word***, attaching myths to other tribes trying to deamn them..... Ashantis are good at tagging other tribes with bad names, and it is terrible, this foolishness must stop........ Even when sarkodie went to OneAfrica shows, he was giving shout out to Ghanaian fans and Nigerians fans, When the idea of the show was One Africa, i mean it is terrible that he behaves that way.
haha asem ooo sm ppl are behaving as if they've never heard of such statement abt krobos Sak na ni ho aba asem ntia but ppl say it all the time and even the krobo girls themselves say it but all the same Sak will advice to say sorry to the chief and just forget abt it. its part of life
You could have avoided the controversy in the 1st place. It's unnecessary and uncalled for. Are all Asantes greedy, love money than anything else, and are always scheming to outdo others?
You're an iddiioott! White is beautiful for the where? The whites indoctrinated us and all other people who have a tiny bit of brown in them that their skin color is the best. They know it's not! Google KellyAnn Conway, check her age and look at her wrinkles. Then google Sngela Basset or a black woman from any part of the world, same age as Kelly (50) and see the difference. These people can't sit in the sun, they'll wrinkle. Their mouths are like scissors blades and they laugh at us for having lips! And finally, they don't bath! The reason why black people get angry is that, white people have a habit of trying to make others feel insecure at the same time than their skin, try to make their ***barred word*** bigger and using Botox for their lips! If I react angrily it's not because white is beautiful, fathead!
...with all'a'dat food on the table: fried rice, fried chicken, french fries...
I don't see anything wrong with the statement sark made because his statement was part of the African history that was passed unto us by the older generation. With all due respect if the krobos want to tell us that the story involving okomfo anokye and the krobo ladies that saw his nakedness is a lie then they can come and correct history by letting the whole Ghana know what really happened. Sarkodie never insulted the krobo ladies but rather praised them listen to the other statements he made after the okomfo anokye one.
This is my take. It's only people who looked down on themselves that will react this way. In this country it is mostly two tribes never react when they are joked about. Do you get me. It shows that this two tribes are really matured. The same goes to us black people. The moment a joke is made about our skin we react. It shoes that we think lowly of ourselves. However white people never behave this way. This means that white is beauty because they believe in their skin
If sarkodie intentionally used (that) statement to catch the ears of music listeners,then w'll pray for your failure in the music carrier. WISE UP BOYS OF THIS AGE CLOTHED IN PRIDE AND ARROGANCE.
