The CEO of SarkCess music and award winning rapper Sarkodie has debunked claims made by Dancehall Shatta Wale that he’s unconcerned about the recent crisis.
In an interview with MzGee on Tv3’s Newday, Sarkodie made emphasis that people are tensed up because of the COVID-19 outbreak globally so an entertainment from artist can reduce the tension risen amongst people.
He emphasized that the virus should not prevent artists to go on with work. He mentioned that Shatta Wale’s “Faith Concert” was also a way to calm down fears in people so he didn’t see anything wrong with what he’s doing.
“It’s about how you want to see it because how I see it is different…This is music and in this COVID-19 everybody has to do their work. We can advocate for the information that people have to hear which is very necessary…but as entertainers, we still don’t have to stop working… so as Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, whoever that is doing music it doesn’t stop because this is the time that they actually need it.”
“I hate it when people see our job as fun or hobby. This is a serious job, I’m an artiste and these times we need these things… Shatta Wale did a live concert which was beautiful because that takes your mind of what is happening…we are artistes as much as we want to also panic, we have a job to entertain,” the rapper further explained.
Sarkodie stressed that the death rate might even go up if there was no entertainment.
Shatta Wale in an interview yesterday told MzGee that he was disappointed in Sarkodie for beefing at the wrong time when people are dying.
However, Sarkodie fired back at Shatta Wale on his Twitter page. According to Sarkodie, he doesn’t have time to reply emotional singers.
