I don't like sarkodie || Yemi Alade stated

This is Yemi Eberechi Alade, affectionately called Yemi Alade in the music industry.

A Nigerian Afropop singer and songwriter. She gained prominence after winning the Peak Talent Show in 2009, and is best known for her hit single “Johnny”.

In an interview with Bola Ray on Starr FM Wednesday, 23rd November 2017, the “Johnny” hitmaker indicated howSarkodie on three occasions, disrespected her and failed to show up for a meeting he had initially agreed.

In her statement, she said, she felt disrespected when Sarkodie refused to show up at a meeting they agreed to have in the USA, UK and South Africa.

This is how she put it;

I’ve really tried my best to really not go into details but the long and short on why I don’t 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’t 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’t come through. I don’t want to bring in the feminine and masculine inequality we’re experiencing in the industry and I don’t want to link it to that.

I was pained as a person but I’ll say it is almost impossible to promote a project that is supposed to be for two people when the other party isn’t coming through at all, the music pretty much suffers.

From her statement, it was obvious she was really hurt by Sarkodie’s attitude. However, she reiterated that she wasn’t worried because she had already made a name for herself.

I already had a name for myself and I’ll continue to do that for as long as I can and as God leads me to. It was just a point in my career that I went over and I’m so fortunate.

For instance I’m here in Ghana and working on a song with MzVee. It takes two to tango… I’m here to support her and she supports me too.

According to Yemi Alade, she no longer follows Sarkodie nor listens to his songs.

I don’t listen to his music, no more fan of him… I only work with artistes I’m a fan of. I’m just not a fan of him anymore.
