Sarkodie and Asem
New York-based Ghanaian rapper Asem takes Sarkodie to the cleaners after the latter dropped a freestyle, jabbing fellow rappers and bragging about his influence in the industry.
Sarkodie, on Sunday, April 5, shared a new beat produced by Appiatus and dropped a hot freestyle and ask other rappers to do the same.
In the freestyle, he threw an open diss: “All you n*ggas want to start a battle/F**k out of here/Me hu no s3 pillow fight/Enam me so way you see the light… Some of you n*ggas are pu**y/You get on my nerve/Ade a mop3 ne mo hype.”
Then, Asem took to Twitter to fire back, saying it took Sarkodie nine years to respond to his diss (referring to his song “No More Kpayor” released in 2011).
In the freestyle, Asem called out Sarkodie for always making comparisons and bragging about his achievements and later called him by his social media alter ego ‘Kabutey’.
He however stated that the freestyle was for love – meaning he has no hard feelings.
