In the song, Bisa touched on issues related to Ghanaians' living conditions. He even borrowed President Nana Akufo-Addo's famous 2016 campaign expression, "yete sika so," as part of his lyrics.
Coming barely two months before Ghana goes to the polls to elect Akufo-Addo's successor, Yenkodi has triggered a conversation that it is politically motivated.

Romeo believes Bisa's song is against NPP
Reacting on the son his show on Accra FM, Nana Romeo agreed with the talk of Bisa's song being political.
He even suggested that the opposition NDC and its flagbearer, John Mahama, or New Force Movement flagbearer Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, might be behind the track as a critique of the current state of the economy.
According to him, Yenkodi is a song Bisa Kdei might have been paid to produce.
"Based on what I have heard from multiple sources I believe this is purely a political song," he said.

It's unlike Bisa
Reacting to Bisa's latest release, Gabriel Myers Hansen of Music In Africa described the song as out of character.
According to him, the Highlife singer had never involved himself in politics and thus finds it curious that he would release such a song now.
"Bisa has been around for quite some time, and there have been many elections. Never for once has he shown any signs of being political. But it seems he wants to cash in or is peeved at something.
"Regardless of his reasons, I think he has been clever about it and will get away without any backlash since he did not mention specific names in the song."
