Presidential staffer calls for the arrest of Blakk Rasta for desecrating Reggae Music

Presidential staffer Charles Nii Teiko Tagoe has observed that Blakk Rasta has over the years been desecrating the consciousness of Reggae.

He is of the view that it will be imperative if the 3FM presenter is arrested by his contemporaries for destroying a genre of music they’ve taken several years to build.

“What you have been doing is rather a desecration of the consciousness of that musical genre. The top acts around who have represented, Marley, Tosh, Donaldson, Culture, Spear, etc so well should either arrest or advise you. Your music churns stomach.”

Charles Nii Teiko Tagoe was reacting to claims by Blakk Rasta that he can only be a presidential staffer under a sleeping president.

To him, Blakk Rasta does not have a place in the scheme of affairs to determine how Bob Marley ‘s estate is managed indicating that Sarkodie was chosen because he has always flown the flag of Ghana high wherever he finds himself.

Dear Blakk Rasta,

Ghana has great reggae acts. Rocky Dawuni is one of our revered acts. Singer, Songwriter, producer. He got his third Grammy nonimation last year after two previous ones in 2015 and 2021.

Though the award has been elusive, vintage Dawuni said the nominations are a positive indication that, sooner than later, a Ghanaian act may win the award. That is clear, but what is also clear is that when Dawuni said that, he never had the Sankaase dawadawa smoker in mind.

He dearly believes in the ability of Ghanaian and African acts to excel internationally. He never had in mind those whom, in their two chosen fields of endeavour, i.e. Musician and Presenter; have proven themselves woefully underwhelming.

Fact remains that Sarkodie featured on Bob’s hit because he’s been top notch, unlike you, “Drunkk Rasta”, he has represented us well across Africa and the world. Your Chinese rendition and all your music is everything short of what Sarkodie has done and can do. No lie, yours is pure envy.

Your drunken chin-chan-cho noise and other cacophonous chords you put out as music has been the lowest-of-lows of Reggae.

What you have been doing is rather a desecration of the consciousness of that musical genre. The top acts around who have represented, Marley, Tosh, Donaldson, Culture, Spear, etc so well should either arrest or advise you. Your music churns stomach.

It is seriously unintelligent and insulting to compare your chow-wan-cha nonsense to the legendary Marley’s Buffalo Soldier song, because of what? Onomatopoeia? The lyrical content of Bob’s classic hit was clear and concise.

When people drew your attention to the dustbin clatter you call a song, you claimed the song applied the use of Onomatopoiea. Ah nsɛm hunu sei.

Shakespeare or Dickens should have you twelve lashes on a bench for such idiotic use of literary devices in a song that makes people feel physically sick.

Owners of Bob’s legacy and estate, his children, his wife, etc. do not have qualms about good Sarkodie’s job on Stir It Up. That is why, intoxicated Shea Butter rats, and Journey-to-the-West Back Up Singer wannabes, crying wolf where there is none, should shut the gaping holes in their faces.

Lover of Reggae Music,

Charles Nii Teiko Tagoe
