Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Sarkodie released his song to convey his side of the story about the actress’ claims that he impregnated her in 2010 but would not accept responsibility, leading to a decision to abort the pregnancy. It did not take long for Yvonne Nelson to respond.
The rapper had warned Yvonne Nelson not to “try” him in the song, but the unfazed author and actress closed her retort with the hashtag “#triedyou” as she warned Sarkodie.
Given that the daughters of the two celebrities in show business were born to separate partners, Yvonne implied that they would eventually have their own difficulties and experiences in life.
“In my book, I narrated how you got me pregnant, how you couldn’t wait for me to get rid of it. How you DROVE me to have an abortion. As usual, you want to use rap to rubbish a pain a young woman felt. We both have daughters, let’s see what life throws at them. #triedyou,” her tweet on June 28, 2023, sighted by GhanaWeb read.
Her initial tweet to Sarkodie had advised him to respect women before this. Yvonne said it was terrible that Sarkodie had dismissed her suffering in a song that is peppered with jabs.
“Insults won’t work Michael. Respect womanhood, I’m happy the world gets to see how you are playing this and the real you. Young women get to learn from this. You would get the applause for a rap. Still doesn’t change the TRUTH,” her tweet barely hours after Sarkodie released the ‘Try Me’ song read.

What did Sarkodie say in the song?
Among others, Sarkodie indicated that Yvonne Nelson had multiple partners hence if she decided to tell the story of how their encounter in 2010 unfolded, she should have told the honest truth.
“You can’t just play victim and paint a picture that she was just looking for love” from all her previous amorous relationships, part of the lyrics went.
“I’m not gonna sit here and lie, we had a thing. First, I thought you were cool till I had a hint,” he sang in English before stating in Twi that he thought he had gotten a good girl only to realise there were others in the queue after him.
The chorus to the song is translated thus: “If you don’t love me, leave me. Why are you pestering me? What is meant for me you have gone to give to Kwame. I have become teary.
“If you don’t love me, leave me let me be. Someone else is longing to be with me, when you were leaving me, you failed to notify me. Baby girl don’t try me.”
