Following the release of his most recent song, which has been characterized as a diss song to his colleague Sarkodie, Ghanaian rapper Yaa Pono, better known by the stage name Ponobiom, has issued a statement.
On January 25, Ponobiom’s 2023 single, named “Yard,” was made public after the artist told fans to look forward to yet another song.
Sarkodie was the objective of Pono’s message, as can be heard if you listen to the song carefully.
The rapper in his verse quizzed, “since when did we feature the dead?”.
The jab has sparked social media reactions, with many questioning what might have led Pono to jab Sarkodie just a few days after his feature on ‘Stir It Up’, a song by the late Bob Marley.
In a tweet sighted by GhanaWeb on Thursday, January 26, Yaa Pono delivered a message to music lovers and also set the record straight.
“No one is the limit 4 gh rap. Not even the gatekeepers can control this, #YARD,” his tweet read.
In an earlier tweet on January 19, he wrote: “Legendary no be by force, focus is.”
