Stonebwoy explained that a number of artistes were invited to the listening party held, and that other artiste who were available, graced the occasion with their presence. Therefore, it would be unfair to call him and the other acts, “lick feet.”
We were all invited, we hooked up with Kendrick Lamar… that’s the levels. There were other people, Sherif, Smallgod, Amaarae and others. If you came, you came. If you didn’t come, you didn’t come, don’t worry.
Speaking on what trespassed after the listening party, he added that:
So don’t say that because your favourite didn’t come, there has to be an agenda (created) to tag all the ones there as lick feet or follow, follow
Sharing the impact negative comments have on celebrities from the diaspora who visit the country, he cited the case of Ari Lennox who was abused on Twitter for sharing positive experiences from her stay in Ghana.
These people just get on Twitter, with two followers, three followers with agenda mindedness and negativity and it is now having an effect on the lot. That girl (Ari Lennox) had to go and delete everything. What is that? When did this all start?
Lamar plays street football in Ghana
Earlier Legit.ng reported Kendrick Lamar arriving in Ghana on Thursday, May 12, 2022, a day before the release of his latest album.
It is no doubt that the rapper is enjoying himself to the fullest in the West African country and the best part of it is that he is not suffocated by the attention since many of the locals didn't recognize him.
A video shared on Twitter depicted the superstar playing street football with some youths. Lamar could be seen rocking a yellow t-shirt, and maroon shorts with white sneakers.
