Famous for his back-to-back beef with Medikal which breathed life into the music industry last year, the rapper said he’s always excited whenever there are industry beefs.
He added that he wishes there could lyrical war between artists all the time without necessarily ascribing any reason for having this awkward posture.
“For me, wherever I hear people beefing, I love it. I wish people could be beefing all the time. I just don’t want to be involved in it. When I see people beefing, I’m happy. I don’t know why but I think it’s fun” he said.
Strongman also used the opportunity during the radio interview to debunk the assertion that one can only thrive and blossom in Accra as a musician.
He disclosed that he has seen many instances where people from Kumasi have denied on interviews that they are from the region when everyone knows they are. However, he stated that he understands them because, at a point, Kumasi artists were grossly stigmatized.
“They felt that they needed to come to Accra to make it but I don’t think life can only get better in Accra”, he said. He continued, “There was a time that when you even mention that you’re from Kumasi, people laugh at you.”
To this end, he suggested if the Kumerican boys, through unity and hard work, have been able to push themselves to get to this level, then we need to support them and be happy about where they’ve gotten to.
