he Dancehall musician in a response to critics on Twitter reminded them of his partnership and works Blak Stars. He clarified that he has no hate for the artiste who was employed to compose the 2022 Black Stars song for the World Cup.
He wrote: “I Did Germany 2006, performed the official song at the closing ceremony at SA 2010. 2014 was yawa and 2018 we no fit go. Been there done that 4get hype. The morale of my statement beyond politics, typos and grammatical errors remains the fact that the track is wack in my Opinions.”
