Sarkodie aka Micheal Owusu is one of the most talked about African music artists on the global scene. He has been called the fastest lyrical artist in Africa, the most diverse artist and a true son of the soil as he mixes his native language ‘ twi ‘ with a bit of English in all his lyrics. If you ever get to meet Sarkodie in person, the first thing that catches your attention is his humility and calmness. Even with all the fame and fortune the music industry brought to him, he still remains one of the most humble music icons you will ever meet from Ghana and across Africa. Freestyling comes natural to Sarkodie and whenever he freestyles, you can hear the passion, punch lines and sincerity in every line. Sarkodie has won loads of music awards including Ghana’s overall Best Artiste of the Year at the Ghana Music Awards 2010 and 2011, Best Rapper of the Year award 2011, Most Popular Song of the Year, and most recently Best International Act (Africa) at this year’s Black Entertainment Television (BET). He is definitely one of Africa’s shining stars promoting positiveness and respect for others through his music all over the world.
