My comment on Sarkodie misconstrued – Lord Kenya

Lord Kenya Lord Kenya

Former hiplife artiste, Lord Kenya, has indicated that his comment on Sarkodie which suggested that the latter is not the best rapper has been taken out of context.

News on Lord Kenya labelling Sarkodie as a braggart went viral with a section of the public deducing that the secular artiste-turned-pastor took a swipe at Sarkodie out of jealousy or probably with the aim of bringing the Illuminati rapper down.

“You don’t become the best rapper in one year, it’s for decades. Before we say someone is the best, do you know how many years he has to work for it? To be honest, how many albums does he [Sarkodie] have? I’m asking them to stop bragging…he [Sarkodie] hasn’t arrived yet and has to take his time… Okyeame Kwame is the best because he knows what he is doing,” Lord Kenya was quoted by starrfmonline.com to have said on Starr Chat.

But speaking to Hitz News, Lord Kenya, admitting that Sarkodie is a good rapper said his remark was a harmless piece of advice and not a direct attack.

“I have nothing against my brother, he is doing his own thing but if you ask me, that’s what I think he is doing [bragging]. He is a good rapper by all standards but we are humans. There are some things I might be doing that’s not right. And when people say tone down, I think it is an advice. I think we’ve taken the whole thing out of proportion. It is not a personal attack. I’m above that…” he said.

Lord Kenya, who has seven albums to his credit, has for the past six years been dedicated to his ministry after encountering God.
