\"Avail9\"Nigerian artiste Yemi Alade and Sarkodie<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Although Nigerian artiste Yemi Alade is currently not enamoured of Ghanaian rap star Sarkodie, she had expressed joy at the latter\u2019s help to her in 2016.<\/p>\n

In 2016, the singer, who shot to fame following the release of her smash hit single \u2018Johnny,\u2019 said Sarkodie made her day when he agreed to feature her \u2018Ego\u2019 song.<\/p>\n

Yemi posted on her Instagram page that she was happy Sarkodie accepted her request to feature on her song, even though he had \u2018chased\u2019 him for a while.<\/p>\n

\u201cKai..@sarkodie1 showed me Pepper.!!I chased him,my Nigerian team chased him, my London team chased him, I almost asked my fans to beg him to have my time.<\/p>\n

Our paths hardly crossed we were always chatting from distant parts of the world. One time we were both in London,OFCOS WE STILL DIDN\u2019T GET TO LINK UP.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t give up,months passed but I knew Sark the beast was the KINDA VIBE MY SONG #EGO on my #MAMAAFRICAAlbum needed. !!<\/p>\n

One blessed midnight, Sark sent me a whatassp msg,babe I will rap in my language but you will get it tonight ,I promise. He made my day, he made my album\u2026lots of love Charle! #hugefanCharle,\u201d she posted.<\/p>\n

However, in a recent interview with Bola Ray on Starr FM, the Nigerian artiste said she had stopped listening to Sarkodie\u2019s songs because he failed to avail himself for a meeting they scheduled to have in the USA, UK and South Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve really tried my best to really not go into details but the long and short on why I don\u2019t want to dwell on this is that it is super unfair, unprofessional and unkind for international acts or even artistes to have a dealing with anybody and after agreeing to certain things, you don\u2019t come through at all.. I can count three different countries and three different venues where my team and I had an agreement with the artiste (Sarkodie) in particular and he didn\u2019t come through,\u201d she told Bola Ray on Starr Chat.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to bring in the feminine and masculine inequality we\u2019re experiencing in the industry and I don\u2019t want to link it to that. I was pained as a person but I\u2019ll say it is almost impossible to promote a project that is supposed to be for two people when the other party isn\u2019t coming through at all, the music pretty much suffers,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

According to Yemi Alade, she no longer follows Sarkodie nor listens to his songs.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t listen to his music, no more fan of him\u2026 I only work with artistes I\u2019m a fan of. I\u2019m just not a fan of him anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking to Sarkodie\u2019s manager, Angel, on the matter, he told Citi Showbiz that he was yet to get full details of the story before he could make any statement.<\/p>\n
