Ghanaian radio presenter Prince Tsegah has slammed rapper Strongman for his “disrespectful” comments about music producer Mr. Logic.
Mr. Logic while commenting on EL, Sarkodie, Teephlow and Strongman’s versions of JMJ’s ‘Riddim of the gods’ on Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz,on Tuesday morning made it known that he was not impressed with Strongman’s version and adviced the former Sarkcess Music signee to come out with a better version because it was the weakest.
“Strongman’s verse on Riddim of the gods is the weakest,” he mentioned.
Strongman in response, took a swipe at Mr. Logic on social media for his opinion.
In a tweet, he said: “Coming from a man who has not given me a pen before but said I’m ungrateful, someone who said I’m disrespectful for saying the truth about the hammer issue, I’m not shocked. Bro I’m bigger than hate do something better. #TooMuchWeed.”
Radio host Prince Tsegah has reacted to Strongman’s response and has labelled him disrespectful for his tweet aimed at Mr. Logic.
Making a submission on Wednesday’s edition of the show, the showbiz critic could not fathom why the young rapper spewed “rubbish” in his attempt to rebut wise counsel.
He said:
“How can you talk to senior man Logic [in that manner]? That too much weed? Does he know the implications of that? That is rubbish.”
“If somebody criticizes your work, you have to take stock of what the person said, not to just react. Strongman, you have shot yourself in the foot by speaking disrespectfully to a senior citizen in this industry.”
Prince Tsegah advised Strongman to render an unqualified apology to Mr. Logic as several stakeholders have taken notice of his actions.
He said: “You need to come and apologise to Logic. His opinion cannot be your wish. Strongman, you didn’t do well.”
Meanwhile Mr. Logic has also expressed shock and disappointment over Strongman’s response.
Speaking on the show, he mentioned that there is a misconception he hates Strongman.
“I was expecting much from Strongman. He does well with rhymes. What I heard yesterday wasn’t the Strongman that I know. It’s such an impudence for him to go off Twitter, saying I am under the influence of weed,” Mr. Logic said.
“I am one of the people who said Strongman was being kept beneath on his label. No one paid attention to that until I said he betrayed Sarkodie, then they said I hate the guy.
“I do not hate Strongman. They should stop all this hate tag. It’s so petty the way they are going about this thing…
“He should know he’s speaking to an elderly person. I’m not a kid. The disrespect is becoming too much in the industry,” he explained further.
