Michael Owusu Addo, known by his stage name Sarkodie, is a Ghanaian hip hop and hiplife recording artist from Tema. He won the Best
International Act Africa category at the 2012 BET Awards, and was nominated
in the same category at the 2014 BET Awards. In 2015,
Sarkodie was ranked the 19th most Influential Ghanaian by e.tv Ghana. He is
considered one of the major proponents of the Azonto genre and dance.
www.ghanathings.com has been following Sarkodie for a while now and
we have realized that, Sarkodies style and brand have been copied from some
American superstars Rick Ross, Kanye West, Jay Z and recently Chris brown.
Many have argued bitterly
that , Sarkodies “HuH” he says in his records are trademarks of Rick Ross and
Kanye West.Sarkodie recently performed in the Uk and was spotted dressed like
Kanye West. Sarkodie has been doing the kanye west dance for a while now when
he mounts any stage in the world.
Sakodie recently dropped
a track for his two week old baby girl who has the same groove and lyrics like
chris brown did with his daughter.
Even though we don’t
see any originality about sarkodie, we ask, is Sarkodie really there yet? Is he
really the artist selling Ghanaian music to the world?
