Rapper Captain Planet has revealed how he and other local artistes were sacked like goats from backstage to make way for superstar Jay Z to perform back in 2016.
The American rapper who was then in his prime (he still remains an iconic figure in Hiphop) 14-years ago headlined a major concert in Accra which was held at the Accra International Conference Centre.
The concert was very successful and while shrouded in nostalgia, Ghanaian Twitter influencer Kaly Jay shared a throwback video of Jay Z’s performance in a recent post online.
As soon as Planet saw the post, he hit the comment section to reveal how he and other GH artistes who were then dominating the mainstream were asked to leave for Jay Z to monopolise the concert as the headliner that he was.

Not too long ago, Captain Planet went in hard at his colleague and former member of the 4×4 for spewing what he termed as ‘rubbish’ and false propaganda.
Coded in a previous interview has said the bar Shatta Wale set at a point in time back in the days caused panic in their camp
He stated that Wale was releasing back to båack hit songs and was getting all the attention. Coded further added that to keep up with the competition the SM boss subtly offered, they decided to split so they can produce individual projects.
He said the idea was for them to release hit songs individually but still sustain the core relevance of the group and reunite later.
“That was the era that a lot of singles were coming from Shatta Wale. That was the season he was releasing countless records. Shatta Wale will release a song today and in a maximum of two weeks, he is out with another song”, he said on Class TV (CTV).
However, barely a few hours after he made this revelation, his former ‘boss’ Captain Planet who was the frontrunner of the group has said what he said is rubbish. Captain Planet reacted in a tweet saying;
Stop that rubbish, it’s never true. I don’t know exactly what Coded was trying to explain. Maybe he was talking for himself [about] the reason he started doing his solo project. I showed the video to Fresh Prince this morning, he was even laughing his lungs out.
