Ghana's most decorated rapper Sarkodie has revealed how his ambition to feature veteran hiplife musician, Obrafour was prematurely aborted a few years ago. He narrated how the legendary musician snubbed his feeble attempts to perform side by side. 

He revealed this past in an interview on the Dentaa show stating that Obrafour did not give him a favorable reply when he reached out to him back when he just started his journey into the musical realm. 

The rapper revealed how he used his grandmothers phone to call Obrafour after he took his number from his niece [Ama] who he was schooling at the Achimota Preparatory School. He said Obrafour asked his name when he answered the call and he spoke his name which is different fromwhat he is called today, [Sarkodie].
