Sarkodie takes “No Pressure” album to Tanzania (VIDEO)

For the past two weeks, Sarkodie has been to two African countries for a press tour – with the aim of pushing his 7th studio album to the major music markets on the continent.

He was in Nigeria last two weeks where he made appearances on top media outlets and climaxed with an album listening party in Lagos. Top Nigerian musicians and actors stormed the listening party. Singer Davido, who featured on Sarkodie’s 2014 hit song “Gunshot,” Rudeboy (P-Square), who featured on Sarkodie’s 2019 hit “Lucky,” and Zlatan Ibile, who featured on Sarkodie’s 2020 hit “Hasta La Vista,” were present. One of Nigeria’s hottest rappers, Phyno and Nollywood legend Jim Iyke were also present.

He moved to Kenya the following week where he made a few radio and TV appearances and closed that chapter last Friday.

Now, the SarkCess Music team are in Tanzania to continue to push the “No Pressure” album.

During his Nigerian tour, Sarkodie dominated headlines when he told Nigerians that he receives support from Ghanaians, but they don’t cherish moments.

He appeared on Lagos-based The Beat FM Thursday, August 19, where presenter Osikhena Dirisu told him that Ghanaians don’t give him enough credit after ‘putting Ghana on the map.’

In his response, Sarkodie said he agrees with Osikhena’s assertions, however, it will be dicey coming from him because his friends will ‘feel kind of way.’ He said he gets support from Ghanaians, but they do not cherish him.

“I think for the past week or something, I was on a media tour, and I had a conversation...but you are saying it,” Sarkodie said.

“It's kind of dicey when it's coming from me because I have friends, and they don't want to feel a certain kind of way. From what you said, I could say I do get support from Ghanaians, just that they should really hold unto moments and cherish it.”
