Why collaborations can be complex

Entertainment pundit and music analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh spoke to YEN.com.gh and he weighed in on why collaborations can sometimes be complex and lead to misunderstandings sometimes.

"There are a lot that goes on behind the scenes that fans do not see. Collaborating with a big artiste for example can be a tedious task because there are a lot of bureaucratic channels one must go through to get the artiste on their project. It is not always the fault of an artiste if he is not able to follow through on a collaboration. He said."

Reactions to Sarkodie and Kofi Mole drama

YEN.com.gh gathered some reactions from social media users.

Princekyeboah said:

"Sark, honestly your management needs to improve. You would have been bigger than Burna but I feel you need some radical thinkers and doers in your team. Your team lacks foresight. This sounds harsh but it’s true."

joojobryte commented:

"Woyɛ sɛ wo dinn da a, yɛ deɛ ɛtene🤣🤣wopɛ ɛntwinie dodo. King Sark, onipa mama biara ho wɔ nsɛm, let them say whatever they want."

whyte_collegi said:

"Your attitude of constantly ignoring your phone is what causes all these problems. Can’t count the number of people you’ve ignored even when they’ve been there for you when you needed them. Work on that because it’s not good for your reputation."
