Big Joe Frazier Questions Sarkodie’s Status as Ghana’s Rap King

Ghanaian rapper Big Joe Frazier has expressed his disagreement with those who consider Sarkodie the greatest Ghanaian rapper of all time.

In an interview with DJ Slim on Hitz FM, he acknowledged Sarkodie’s talent but argued that other rappers deserve the top spot.

Big Joe Frazier named Lord Kenya, Obrafour, and Reggie Rockstone as his greatest rappers. He believes these artists not only had hit songs but also remarkable stage performances.

He pointed out that Obrafour’s stage presence was always exciting, even if his performances were not hyperactive. He praised Lord Kenya’s stagecraft from past performances.

Frazier emphasized that these rappers’ albums were filled with hit songs, making them stand out in his view.

He disagreed with the idea that Sarkodie is the greatest of all time, preferring to honor Lord Kenya, Obrafour, and Reggie Rockstone for their contributions to Ghanaian music.

The debate was sparked by Graphic Showbiz’s ranking of the 12 greatest Ghanaian rappers, placing Sarkodie at the top, followed by Obrafour, Okyeame Kwame, and others. This list has stirred discussions in the media.

Ghana has many talented rappers, including Lyrical Joe, Omar Sterling, Medikal, King Paluta, Ponobiom, Obibini, Edem, EL, Flowking Stone, and TeePhlow, among others.

Meanwhile, Big Joe Frazier has released a new song titled “After Church,” featuring King Paluta.
