Desmond Blackmore, better known in showbiz circles as D- Black, has stated that Yaw Tog only stated the obvious when he stated that he made British rapper Stormzy more popular in Ghana when he featured him on the remix of ‘Sore,’ alongside Kwesi Arthur, except that it was unnecessary for him to have done so.
D-Black told Takoradi-based Connect FM presenter Ato Kwamina Otoo D’Gem, “to be honest with you, I don’t believe he lied, he spoke the truth.”
“In my view, I don’t think there was a need to express anything at that time. It makes you appear a particular way and gives the listener a specific impression, but I don’t believe he lied about it; it’s the truth; he made [Stormzy] more popular in that respect in Ghana, but I don’t think it was necessary to say.”
The Enjoyment Minister, as he is now fondly known after his famous song from his ‘Loyalty the Album,’ said that although Yaw Tog spoke the truth, he would soon learn that Ghana is mainly conservative and that one must be cautious about what they say and where they say it.
Fast-rising Ghanaian rapper Yaw Tog has recently divided the internet over remarks he made about UK-based superstar Stormzy during an interview on TV3‘s New Day, after the latter included him on the remix version of his ‘Sore’ hit song, with Kwesi Arthur.
In response to the notion that Stormzy made him more popular or that he made Stormzy more known in the market, Yaw Tog said, “He made me more popular in this industry, but I also made him more popular.” We both performed magic on ourselves and on our brands.”
D-Black was in Sekondi-Takoradi, the capital of the Western Region, to promote his new album ‘Loyalty,’ together with a signee to his label, S3fa.
