Multiple award-winning rapper Sarkodie has named rappers he would take on in a rap battle and also disclosed why he chose them.
Sarkodie has been in the news for a few days after his recent comments about media personalities during an interview with Fire Stick. According to Sarkodie, some media persons do not have the morals to criticize artists because they have not gotten to the level where they should.
According to Sarkodie, he is interested in contesting Nigeria’s M.I. Abaga and South Africa’s Cassper Nyovest in a rap battle in Hip-hop. He made the disclosure while speaking in an interview with Ghanaian blogger Emmanuel Sandyman also known as Fire Stick.
Before naming the rappers he would love to battle with, Sarkodie disclosed that he wouldn’t want to battle with any young rapper in the industry.
“I feel you only respond when you’re not sure of your [superior] position,” he reasoned.
He, however, admitted he has an interest in taking on an international rapper.
“M.I. Abaga, yeah. Definitely,” he nodded. “Cassper, yeah,” he agreed when the host cited the South African rap act also.
No disrespect [to other rappers] but let’s be realistic, businesswise,” he explained.
His concerns are majorly promotional.
“If I have a lyrical battle with Cassper, South Africa will be watching what I’m doing. Nigeria, if I battle M.I., they’ll watch.”
