When it comes to the rap industry in Ghana, many have given Sarkodie his flowers. Legendary Hiplife artiste Obrafour is the latest to do so, labelling Sarkodie the greatest rapper he has ever seen.
In an interview with content creator Code Micky on September 30, 2025, Obrafour reflected on Sarkodie’s early days in the music industry.
He recalled witnessing the rapper’s humble beginnings and the unwavering determination that set him apart from his peers at the time.

According to the veteran musician, Sarkodie entered the rap scene with a rare drive and discipline that made it clear he was destined for greatness.
“I witnessed Sarkodie’s humble beginnings and I could see the hunger in him to fight and achieve his dreams. From the moment he entered the rap scene, I knew he was the chosen one. Sarkodie stood out from the rest even though others were also trying their best. I didn’t need anyone to tell me; I felt it in my spirit. He is the greatest rapper I have ever seen,” Obrafour stated.
Just recently, rapper Kojo Cue also described Sarkodie as the greatest, pointing to his consistency, accolades, and impact as proof.

He explained that Sarkodie’s achievements place him far ahead of his peers, both past and present.
“Sarkodie is the greatest rapper of all time. It is metrics, it’s undeniable. You can check everywhere. Based on consistent hits, based on how huge his fanbase is. The only person I can think of who comes close to Sark in terms of fanbase is Lord Kenya, but because Lord Kenya stopped at a point, I don’t think he can go a hundred songs back-to-back with Sark.
“The most nominated, has won the most awards. Whether you like it or not, you cannot argue it,” Kojo Cue said.
