Many folks were in love with Xlimkid's vocal ability, while others could not get over Sarkodie's aggressive flow.
Music executive and entertainment pundit Chris Tsormanah, in a conversation with YEN.com.gh, opened up about Sarkodie's success and how strategic he is with his features. He was of the view that the veteran artiste featuring up-and-coming artists was smart.
Sarkodie is very intentional with his features; as an artiste who is independent like Sarkodie, some of these features are low-hanging fruits. It is easier for features to get clearance with young artists because most of them are independent themselves. The hurdles that come with collaborating with artists on major labels is a lot. Strategies like these have helped keep Sarkodie at the top. He said.
