What the hell? That’s like Jesus saying people should stop speaking in tongues because they’re too spiritual.
The artist known as Lord Paper says he’s not going to release the visuals for his latest single ‘Pono’, because he thinks it’s too explicit and he already garnered the attention he wanted with ‘Awurama’.
The rapper in an interview with ZionFelix.net said he’s actually a good kid who doesn’t engage in such stuff, and apologised for the earlier videos. He said when people pay no heed to underground artists, they might be forced to resort to such measures to garner the needed attention.
“I changed my mind, I think its time I end it. I wanted to prove a point and I think I already have.” he said.
“The industry should try and create a platform for the underground artistes, so we don’t have to pull stunts to get attention. I apologise to Ghanaians for the immoral act even though it’s art. I’m actually a good kid; I respect my country and the morality of the country. I promise it won’t happen again. I was supposed to drop a video today but looking at the explicit nature of it, I personally think it’s enough. I’m not dropping it anymore but I promise to shoot a mind-blowing video with Yaa Pono on the remix so people can actually see the creativity.
“I promise to bring good music for Ghanaians to enjoy and see me as a good artiste and not a good por*n star.” the artiste, born Michael Takyi-Frimpong, added.
