Sometimes we the fans have to be fair kakra, imagine Big artist like Kanye, Jay Z ft Sarkodie but decided to shoot the video without Sarkodie, how would you feel as a fan? Ink Boy is crying 💔. I feel his pains tho😉 cos he needed that exposure

Real. King Promise wasn’t in Greece when they shot Labadi. But that should be a wake up call for ink boy as an artiste until you get leverage wa sem y3 mor Bor. He should channel the pain into the music and forgive senior man Sarkodie. No matter what the relationship is important https://t.co/eIMj5qWF81

When Sarkodie's needs a feature from you, he's very humble.

Just take a look at Sarkodie sitting in that chair like he's been summoned to some family meeting.

After the feature has been done, he no longer regard InkBoy pic.twitter.com/ns4S9Yeawh

The video be clean, as usual. Because it's King Sark! But I just felt really bad after not seeing Ink Boy in the video. Management could have just made him shoot his scenes in Nigeria, like they did with King Promise on Labadi. This will cause so much pain to Ink Boy. pic.twitter.com/kIjJL4pYki

I won't be surprised if he reacts badly to it. It's natural. But I just hope he don't let this cut of his ties with Sark. The King will be always ready to help him genuinely.

After analyzing what Sarkodie did to Ink Boy, I realized, nothing is killing the upcoming musicians more than their own idols. How much will it cost for Sark to fly the boy to show in the video ? He did it to Moelogo. A clear shot of pull him Down syndrome from the A-list artist. pic.twitter.com/qr41glfoSg

Sarkodie gave Ink boy enough mileage by putting him on the Jamz Album, an opportunity many upcoming Gh artists wish they had. The video was shot in Spain together with Labadi, Sarkodie in several interviews said he shot 3 music videos in Spain when he went there. https://t.co/pmt751RLdT
