Music lovers in Ghana have taken to social media to express their views after rapper Yaw Tog in an interview said he made UK rapper, Stormzy more popular in the Ghanaian market.
During the interview, the ‘Young Bull’ stated that the UK-based Ghanaian also made him more popular after collaborating to create the remix for the hit song, ‘Sore’.
However, some Ghanaians who disagreed with him said Sormzy was popular in his own right before the Yaw Tog collaboration.
Some called for an apology stating that the Kumerican drill artiste now sees himself as a big figure in the industry while others claimed he had bad communication skills.
But, others believe the young artiste did not say anything wrong. The believe the remix of 'Sore' did give both Stormzy and Yaw Tog some popularity in their respective jurisdictions.
See comments below:
The management of Yaw Tog should teach him how to communicate. He is young and doesn't know how to communicate professionally. For example a comment he made about Asakaa boys during his interview with Delay was not proper but he did so bcos of how Delay asked him the question

Bra Sammy, kid said nothing wrong. He said 'More Popular in Ghana' which is facts. I was at the Video shoot, everywhere we went to people mobbed Kwesi & Tog, and were discussing Stormzy as "oh y3 se ofiri UK na oy3 big paa". It takes nothing away from Big Mike. https://t.co/IEfkMSfVni

It'll be highly nonsensical for @YAWTOG_ to ever be inferior to his connect with stormzy and the popularity that comes aftermath regarding the genre He's oriented to. Dude knows how to grab the attention for this game. Forget your emotional sentiment this dude is youngbull af!

There's nothing wrong with what Tog said cos it's only few of us who are deep into music and listen to UK hip-hop(Grime) that really knew Stormzy before the Sore Remix. Truth be told, a lot of y'all didn't know Stormzy. Truth
