Who needs Blakk Rasta’s opinion on Bob Marley/Sarkodie collabo? -Kwabena Kwabena

Highlife artiste, Kwabena Kwabena says people should disregard comments by media personality/musician, Blakk Rasta on his perceived negative opinions of rapper Sarkodie’s collaboration with Bob Marley on Stir it Up.

Speaking on UTV’s United Showbiz yesterday, February 4, the Aso crooner mentioned that Blakk Rasta’s opinion was not relevant in the scheme of affairs at the moment.

Kwabena Kwabena was responding to a question of the consequences of Blakk Rasta’s labelling of the collaboration as a desecration of the legacy of the late music icon.

“How is Blakk Rasta relevant here? Who wants his opinion? If his views mattered, he would have been consulted before the production and that is why no one’s opinion is needed.

“What is important now is that, the song is done and everyone should go and listen to it. That should be the focus of the conversation and nothing else,” he said.

Kwabena Kwabena said that it was quite unfortunate that Ghanaians love to major on irrelevant issues at a time when they should be celebrating victories.

“This is quite unfortunate because with what is happening, one may be tempted to ask if any good thing can come out of Ghana. I’m saying this because anytime Ghana has something good to boast of, we just denigrate it.

“This is not the first time. This negative attitude started from the days of Fuse ODG, Shatta Wale, and many others have suffered same.

“For many years, Rocky Dawuni has been getting Grammy nominations but nobody really cared about it until recently when we started having discussions about it,” he noted.
