Sarkodie’s former signee, Strongman, has opened up about his rapid rise to fame and fortune after parting ways with the label.
After Strongman’s contract with MicBurnez Music expired in 2017, the rapper signed with Sarkcess Music; however, in 2019, he decided to dissolve his contract with the label.
In an interview with Kbn Nkansah, which Ama Sadat posted to Twitter, the rapper discussed how he had lately begun to have some achievements in his music career, including earning a lot of money and gaining popularity.
When I was on the verge of leaving Sarkcess, that was probably when I first started making money with my music. He explained, “Before Sarkcess, I had some money, which I could use to buy a car, but I would rather spend it on other things.”
During the interview, the rapper thanked Sarkodie, the CEO of the record company, for supporting him as he grew as a musician. When comparing his time at Sarkcess Music to the present, Strongman Burner says he is much more at ease creatively.
“There is no longer any tension in my life because of my departure. I never stated that Sarkodie did not contribute, and I never will. If I was in Form 1, then being around Sarkcess probably bumped me up to Form 2, and you shouldn’t expect me to stay at that level.”
“I need to work harder and get better. I was helped by Sarkcess, but I’m content with where I am today. “It’s not about the money, but I feel like some things have been taken off my mind,” he stated.
