Award-winning rapper Strongman has revealed why he decided not to show off his girlfriend while under Sarkodie’s SarkCess Music record label.
Sarkodie discovered and signed Strongman in 2017 after he proved his worth. However, while under the label, Strongman did not show off his girlfriend.
And explaining why he didn’t do that back in the days, he said Ghanaians think it is weird to be dating while receiving help from someone.
“Ghanaians think it’s weird for young famous people to have girlfriends. It’s not just Ghana. Some time ago, it was weird elsewhere,” he said whilst speaking on Angel FM this week.
“Imagine under SarkCess Music I had come out to talk about my girlfriend, people would feel it’s wrong to date when you are getting help from someone else. People wouldn’t take it lightly.”
But the prolific rapper said he started showing off his girlfriend after he became an independent artiste.
He also gave hints at a wedding to happen very soon.
“A lot of people feel it was too early in my career to have a girlfriend. But now, they are comfortable, and they know what I am capable of doing. Aside from that, I am turning 30 in a few years, and I completed university five years ago. Most of my friends have married. I will soon marry,” he said.
