Sarkodie Lashes Out At Event Organizers




Ghana’s fastest rapper and BET Awards 2012 Best International Act winner, Sarkodie also known as Obidi Pon Bidi by his fans has criticized event organizers who use images of artistes who will not feature during their event to make their events popular to desist from such acts.

Sarkodie who described the event organizers as trying to be smart tweeted: “Ghana event organizers always wanna play smart.. jst cos u cudnt meet ma fee n u still need ma fanbase u print posters with ma face on.”

According to his tweet, he had been contacted by the event organizer but although they could not meet his fee thus making it impossible for him to perform as scheduled, the organizers have printed posters in his name to get the attention of his fan base.

Subsequent tweets revealed that when his team contacted the event organizers, they denied knowledge about the posters.

“When we called them they said they don't know who printed now they printed new one without ma face... but still first one is on sites...

Event organizers 've been ***** on gh musicians 4 loong

I ve never been this type but it hurts..... show some respect... cos we deserve..

Same media gon make u look like u arrogant when u speak out cos they dun wan people 2 know da shit they do...” he tweeted.

Sarkodie also lamented over treatment meted out to musicians by event organizers adding that they don’t get the same treatment that foreign artistes get.

“They use our musicians like disposable plates. I won't b selfish cos im in a safe place.. I feel 4 everyone... fans never know what goes on

They choose to meet all demands made by foreign acts ... and tell me im too known cos I said I need dressing room..

We don't ve one musician taking gh 2 da nxt level cos they get killed even b4 they get der..... But watch me... God forbid

All they waiting 4 is 4 me 2 fall so they wudn't ve 2 go by ma rules... goodluck... they never wanna see a powerful musician,” he added.

SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers,  Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important.  Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should. Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages.  Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to...

THE NAKED MARRIAGE

Welcome dear Readers, You must be thinking that I want to talk about sex today. But hey, we will be talking about that plus a lot more. True intimacy requires what happens in the bedroom plus a lot more. In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve, the first couple. They lived in an ideal world; no debt, no no crazy in laws, no baggage, no stress, no fighting and and also, NO CLOTHING! (Gen 2:25) When God reveals unto us a naked marriage, He is revealing to us something more than just walking around the house with no clothes on or just sex. He is revealing the importance of TRANSPARENCY, VULNERABILITY,ACCEPTANCE and INTIMACY at every level of the relationship. I am suggesting we become more intentional about working on our relationships this way. Love is honest. Love is trust. You open yourself to temptations when you decide not to live in a naked marriage. These temptations have led many down the path of doom. My husband used to believe trust in a marriage is a sacrifice. T...

MAKING THE CONSCIOUS EFFORT 1

 Welcome Dear Readers, Have you ever heard someone say ,"I am still with you, ain't I?"  "If i didn't love you, I would not be with you". Or better still, "No one marries his or her enemy."  Well all these statements can be true but when it becomes an anthem , then whoever is singing it, is in fact missing something. Making a relationship work takes effort. Effort I describe as conscious. You decide with your heart, mind and energy,physical energy to work your relationship towards success. If you are married,with kids, it as well become double Effort. Years back, I would constantly nag my husband of not loving me because he paid more attention to people outside our home. His favorite line in response to me was, "Did I marry them? Am I not with you?" You may be laughing now thinking this man... But this statement would pierce my heart to the core. I would cry my eyes out and sometimes even refuse to eat. I recently learnt to pray ...
