Possigee(L) and Obrafour(R)

Ghanaian sound engineer Possigee and hiplife legend Obrafour have recently been involved in a social media back-and-forth regarding who wrote Obrafour’s verse on Sarkodie’s ‘Hope’. 

  The disagreement started after Possigee shared a video where he talked about the music industry and how some artistes don’t appreciate it when other people write songs for them. 

  In his opinion, it’s not a bad thing for artistes to allow others to write for them at some point in their career. 

  While explaining his point, Possigee mentioned that Sarkodie wrote verses for other artistes, citing the example of ‘Baby’ by Sarkodie featuring Mugeez.  

  He then said that Sarkodie also wrote a part of Obrafour’s verse for the song ‘Hope’ 

  “Hope, Sarkodie featuring Obrafour, ebi Sarkodie wey he write am wey he make Obrafour sing am, Wey Obrafour join ein own,” Possigee said in a mixture of English and Pidjin. 

  This didn’t sit well with Obrafour, who responded in the comment section of the post, denying the claim that Sarkodie wrote a hook for him. 

  “What kind of lie is this? Can you tell me which of my songs any ghost writer wrote for me or Sark? Please don’t involve me in any of your clout chasing nonsense. 
Respect yourself and lemme be in my corner,” Obrafour replied. 

  In response, Possigee defended himself, saying he was the one who recorded the song and knows exactly how the whole process happened.  
He also stated that he has never been someone who seeks attention or clout. 

  “Obrafour I am talking about Hope, Sarkodie ft you.. i recorded Sarkodie and the choir and as you know I have never been a clout chaser,” Possigee replied. 

  Obrafour, still unhappy with the claim, further asked Possigee to stop spreading false information and get his facts right before speaking. 

  “PossiGee, who said Sark wrote my hook? Get your facts right pls. Call him and ask and don’t be misinforming,” Obrafour added.
