According to him, he could not wait to finish school to continue pursuing his first love, music.

The artiste said this in a yet-to-be-aired edition of E Vibes on JoyNews.

“We were the first batch, 1979. I don’t remember if I failed or passed, but I’m sure I failed. My aim was to just finish school and continue my music. When I was in school, music was the only thing I could think of,” he said adding that music has treated him better.

Speaking to host Becky, Mr Sarpong explained that "music has done a lot for me, anywhere I go people shower praises on me so I didn’t regret.”
