Mental health advocate, Abena Korkor has refuted claims that Sarkodie’s prowess has dipped as she has argued that the rapper is rather ‘refined’.
Speaking to GhanaWeb at the 23rd edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards which was held at Grand Arena, Saturday, Abena Korkor who was rooting for Sarkodie to win Artiste of the Year and every category he had been nominated for, said the rapper is a genius and deserves all the accolades.
“No,” she responded to suggestions that Sarkodie is not vibrant.
“They say ‘the wine tastes better with age’. He’s a refined wine, refine cigar, he’s just getting better and tasting better so what are you guys talking about?”
