Nine months after his studio session with Sarkodie went viral, Safo Newman has revealed that the meeting was musically unproductive.
The duo met at Sarkodie’s studio in February 2024 after Safo Newman expressed a desire to personally thank the rapper for his acknowledgment.
Recalling the moment, Safo shared, “Sarkodie tweeted that I was original, liked my style, and looked forward to working with me. I was grateful and thanked him in his DM, but I felt it wasn’t enough. So, I asked if I could meet him personally to express my appreciation.”
Following their meeting, rumors spread that they had recorded an industry-changing banger set to be released later this year.
However, in a recent interview on Hitz FM, Safo disappointed anticipating fans by stating that no collaboration of that sort was ever recorded. He emphatically clarified that their meeting was purely conversational, and “nothing happened” in terms of music.
When asked if his denial was to please Sarkodie, who is known for his strict policy of keeping collaborations under wraps until official announcements, Safo Newman reiterated that there is no unreleased project being held back.
Obviously disappointed, the ‘Akokoa’ hitmaker remains optimistic that, at the right time, Sarkodie will bless him with a verse.
