I did not mention Sarkodie\u2019s name. If in the song I said an imaginary being who touched my crown is the one \u2018Kasahari\u2019 has revealed, then it is up to you for interpretation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Obrafuor a few years ago featured Sarkodie on a song called \u2018Hiplife\u2019 where he asked Sarkodie to touch his crown and promised to give to him if he worked hard.<\/p>\n<p>Coming back with a song to claim his place in the industry, alluding to a dip in the performance of the one that touched his crown and his ilk, is what has been interpreted by many as a jab to Sarkodie, his heir apparent.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the song was done to whip some wayward Ghanaian rappers into line.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can see that when some of us came in, we saw where we should take this. But when you sit back and you see where this whole game is going then it leave much to be desired,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He noted the current songs are only beat-driven and have no impact.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe rap is all about vulgarity and insults. The beats are all the same and carry no message. They should sit up and roll their sleeve just like when \u2018Pae Mu Ka\u2019 came,\u2019\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Obrafuor was quick to add that the line \u2018Obrafuor remains the same\u2019 in \u2018Kasahari\u2019 does not mean he is not dynamic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just a gentle reminder that I am still here. I have not gone anywhere. The Obrafuor that you have always loved,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>The Ghana Rap Sofo has recently released songs like \u2018No Size,\u2019 \u2018Too Much\u2019 and the controversial \u2018Kasahari.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Obrafuor is one of the rap giants who emerged at the incipient stages of rap music in Ghana. He has influenced a lot of young rappers like Sarkodie, M.anifest and the like in the music trade.<\/p>\n<p>He has classic hits such as \u2018Pae Mu Ka,\u2019 \u2018Kwame Nkrumah,\u2019 \u2018Oye Ohene,\u2019 \u2018Kasiebo,\u2019 \u2018Yaanom,\u2019 \u2018Pimpinaa,\u2019 among others.<\/p>\n<p>Listen to \u2018Kasahari\u2019 by Obrafuor below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RG91qyJMzFE\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music of Tuesday, 7 November 2017 Source: citifmonline.com 2017-11-07 Obrafuor and Sarkodie &#13; &#13; The Rap Executioner, Michael Elliot Kwabena Okyere-Darko aka Obrafuor, has dismissed talks that his latest \u2018Kasahari\u2019 song is a \u2018diss\u2019 to Sarkodie.
