Ace Hood contacted me for our collaboration – Sarkodie

By Chrysanthus Ikeh

Award winning Ghanaian rapper, Sarkodie has revealed that American hip hop act, Ace Hood made the first move towards their recent collaboration on the song, ‘New Guy’.

 Speaking with YFMGhana, the BET nominee was asked why he didn’t tweet to make an official announcement about the collaboration from the onset, to which he responded: ‘I didn’t make any announcement; basically I doubted it which is bad but such a call always makes you feel like it’s a prank. I’ve got my agents in the States who actually contacted me that AceHood contacted them.’

The ‘Love Rocks’ rapper, who missed the #DumsorMustStop protest because of the collaboration, also claimed he kept mute even when the project was done but AceHood leaked the information after some one tweeted about it from France.

‘Even when everything was done and I had to move, I still wanted to get the song done. Right from studio I saw a tweet from France saying ‘Oh, this is happening, Sarkodie & Ace Hood’ I was shocked and in the car we kept quiet for an hour pointing fingers at who actually leaked the whole information but surprisingly Ace Hood himself put it out there.’
